Eric (et al), Thanks for responding; apologies are unnecessary. Bjorn's link gave me adequate guidance for creating a standalone app, and clarified how JHS can be launched from a unix console (terminal).
Now I think you have added a way to include the jquery min scripts in HBS. I gather from your comments regarding these scripts, if I can wait a short while, it will not be necessary to add these scripts because they will be part of the JHS system. Unfortunately, I have now completed the book that inspired my looking into this project and realize that in may be difficult to use J alone to generate 3d for canvas's 2d. For that purpose the book mentions the need to use webgl, which I gather is a descendent of opengl, which I have some experience using from within J. I gather that webgl is not (yet?) widely available on standard and mobile browsers, though. Is that the impression of others? If so, is initiating such a project premature?
