Hi Raul,
Be reasonable. If your tacit won't accept it, how do you expect mine to?

J's tacit translator will not translate this sentence into tacit form,
but instead uses explicit form:
13 :'(y + ".);._2 x'
4 : '(y + ".);._2 x'
I could come up with a tacit expression which accomplishes
this task, but this would require a complete re-implementation
and not a conversion.
