Thanks to Ric & Dan - I thought I'd seen something in recent
correspondence but could't find it on searching for colour & session.
It's reassuring that this is a feature, though J software people might
know why changing the default in edit/configure - which I can now
apparently choose to do - doesn't change the behaviour for my
~user scripts. ie checking "scripts under ~install except those
under ~temp or ~user" doesn't change the default behaviour for
me; luckily, selecting "None - all ... editable" does work, though
presumably at higher risk of mangling J installed scripts. Could
this be because I've elected to keep my user and temp files under
\j602 rather than the installation default, \j602-user ?
Thanks again
Mike

Edit|Read Only (or Ctrl+T) will make the ijs script editable.
There has been previous discussion of this in the beta forum back in
December when it was first introduced

Subject: [Jbeta] Loss of "Bluejay" and cursor/editing in ijs screen
Has anyone else had this problem? As of this
afternoon, I can't edit old ijs screens.
9!:12'' NB. Windows Type
6
9!:14'' NB. J Version
j602/beta/2007-09-19/23:00
I don't know if package manager has anything to do
with this, but my j602 d beta had been running fine
under Windows Vista Home Premium until a session
today when I happened to update new and install
missing items using the PM. Now, when I open an
ijs using file/open or file/recent, the script
opens up but in a different colour scheme of
uncertain status, and I am unable to edit text.
Luckily I can open a New ijs (file/new ijs)
in my preferred BlueJay colour schem and copy/paste
text from the errant screen to the new one.
This may or may not be the fault of package manager
or the new base library which I know I downloaded.
Unfortunately I can't remember which other packages
were previously not installed.
I don't particularly mind losing the BlueJay colour
scheme, if I must, but don't really want to start
using a new Editor.
I expect you need other information - if so, please
let me know what's needed.
Thanks in advance
Mike
