1. R E Boss has pointed out to me two bugs in the distribution as was: a missing user.zip and a missing J verb: cmx. I have fixed these. If you've encountered problems then please try again.
2. The wd-based topend is a dead-end and should now be considered legacy-only. I was meaning to write a new topend based on a single big isigraph. This would have offered extreme flexibility at the cost of building the thing from matchsticks. But I've just taken an overdue look at the new j701 beta and it shows the way to go. That is, to write a better topend not with gl2 calls but with dynamic html. J701 as I see it dissolves the boundary between a local app and a server-hosted one, enabling me to develop the former and migrate it to the latter, writing in nothing but J. This has further implications. It promises to dissolve the boundary between a book of J pastimes like: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/At%20Play%20With%20J , a collection of wiki pages, and a downloadable freeware app to support the written material like TABULA. A very exciting prospect.
