Hello everyone,
I’m not sure whether this is the right forum, because my question
does, in a strict sense, not refer to J but rather to the tooling -
however, I’ll try.
I’m using GNU Emacs 27.1 and J 9.02 on a Windows 10 machine. Since I
do a lot of work in org-mode I thought I could give Zach Elliot’s
j-mode a try:
https://github.com/zellio/j-mode
I installed the package via el-get and after setting j-console-cmd to my
jconsole.exe file everything seemed to work fine.
However - whenever I try to send a buffer containing a .ijs-file to the
console with C-c C-c seemingly nothing happens, but after pressing C-g I
jump into the buffer holding the jconsole output and see, that the J
content has successfully been sent to the console. Interestingly enough,
I see a similar behavior in the jconsole buffer itself. Every time I’m
entering a definition like mean =: +/ . * I have to press C-g to process
it. Showing an existing noun, e.g., however, does just work fine from
within the jconsole buffer and I do not need any additional C-g.
I faintly remember, that someone (maybe Devon) recently had some trouble
with j-mode.el, too. So probably someone knows, what is going on here
and whether there is some way to handle this irritating behavior?
Kind regards,
Thomas
