First, in J/iOS, I get:

   1!:43''
/

Next, I get, strangely:

   jpath '~addons'
/j/addons

I say "strangely" because I don't path per se in the iOS Apps/J tree. So I _still_ don't know for sure whether it means
Apps/J/Documents/J/addons, on the one hand, or else
Apps/J/j.app/Documents/addons, on the other hand.

Similarly, I get:

   jpath '~system'
/j/system

   jpath `~user'
/j/user

   jpath '~temp'
/j/user/temp

Now I do see directories

  Apps/j/Documents/j/addons
  Apps/j/Documents/j/system
  Apps/j/Documents/j/user

and in j.app/Documents I see

  Apps/j/j.app/Documents/addons
  Apps/j/j.app/Documents/system

but _not_ Apps/j/j.app/Documents/user .

This is still confusing as to what's where, since in both
Apps/j/Documents/j/system I have subdirectories config, defs, main, and util whereas in Apps/j/j.app/Documents/system I have subdirectories defs, main, and util -- only. I don't understand this seeming partial duplication, at all.

 What does jpath '~addons' or 1!:43'' shows? Or

[NOTE: I changed the upper-case J I had previously shown in the preceding lines to lower-case; it was hard to discern the difference between the upper- and lower-case forms for this letter!
