Here's the Configuration routine that I do every time
a new J version is installed. Others may also share theirs.
Thus we may find common customizations which may be made
preset to minimize this step.
(In j602)
- place user and j folder side-by-side:
any\j602
any\j602-user
this option is not available in setup dialog,
so after installation and before first run I
have place the following profilex.ijs in bin:
user=. (PATHSEP_j_(i:~{.])install),userx
temp=. user,'\temp'
config=. user,'\config'
(In all Js, in order of Config dialog)
- before opening config, resize J session to ~1/4
of screen and place in bottom-right corner
(so that script windows not overlap with it)
- Display:
- Font: change size to 10
- Display: Linear
- Box: Ascii (optional)
- Folders: reorder: System, Addons, User, Projects
(otherwise, Find in Files works funny,
BTW placing Projects tab first in FIF is annoying too)
- Format Script: [X] Indent Explicit Definitions
- Forms: change font family to something antialised
like Arial, Microsoft Sans Serif, etc.
- Print: change font size to 10
- Session: Open Scripts Read-only: None (j602)
- Startup: [Current Position], [Current Size]
