The action menu shortcuts seem to run out of steam after 3 entries
which garner q, w & e. The shortcuts 1 & 2 seem to be tied the menu
and body of a frame (perhaps a case could be made for using 3 to go to
the 'scratch form). Maybe this would be a good place to try a second
level? Eg q1, q2 q3... or another shortcut key, eg my editor uses
ctrl-Q - though in some desktop apps this is tied to quit.

The multiple demo uses the IP address of the callers machine... This
may not have a J engine on it (and in many cases it is multiple
machines) Perhaps if it were pointed at the currently used J engine
(IP and port) it would be more useful?

What is the shortcut r tied to in the ijs actions menu? It says it is
tied to 'run' in the action menu but seems to have no effect on the
ijx box... 'run display' which has no shortcut is the useful run for
the file... i would like r tied to 'run display' (for symmetry with
scratch) and 'run' be run current line. A third run item might be
selection.

The scratch area can be made to a larger size by dragging, but cannot
be made smaller. Perhaps if it were initially a single line in size it
would be more flexible.

JHS JAL update 1.0.34 available.

Try debug (see help).

Try ijx action menu (see help). The idea is that this facilitates a
very simple project manager.

Try jdemo9 (thanks to the users who did the groundwork here).

Try ijx studio|scratch.. and scratch. This puts a small text area at
the top of the ijx window where you can enter multiple lines and then
run them with esc r shortcut.

The ijs readonly problems with some browsers has not been fixed. If
this is a big problem for you, I can provide a temporary workaround.

The varous cut/paste problems have not been sorted out.
