In that case (a named tacit) I don't know why you think that
the values for the left and right arguments are not available.
e.g.
plus=: +
13!:0 ]1
'abc' plus 3 4 5
|domain error: plus
|plus[:0]
13!:13 ''
+----+-+-+-+-++-----------+--+-+
|plus|3|0|3|+||+---+-----+| |*|
| | | | | |||abc|3 4 5|| | |
| | | | | ||+---+-----+| | |
+----+-+-+-+-++-----------+--+-+
If you are using the debug window, the above information
is also available via the "view stack" icon, the icon second
from the right.

is that why we can't get the values of the arguments? The tacit is
named. i had assumed the arguments received the x/y names
implicitly...

Heh, there is only so short you can make a non trivial recursive
tacit. But yes, divide and conquer is the strategy.
