Agreed. As I said, I am satisfied with that for the current version. > The steps are simple and very little > experience is required.

Many computer users (well I think it's not just me!) are "picky" about where their user files reside, and the concept of separating program and user files is not unique to J. Those users (and I imagine J's target audience would be well represented in that group) are generally careful to put user files in the "appropriate" place when installing programs, despite not having previous experience in the particular program they are investigating. Not being given that option, creates an unfavourable first impression. A default installation where everything just installs without user intervention (or should that be interference) is desirable, but I believe it would be an improvement to also give new users some control so that their first focus post-installation is "Now I am ready to discover the power of J." not "Now how do I get my user data where I want it?". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
