Also, personally I prefer to use echo rather than stdout LF,~": (echo is simpler and seems more robust in the context of array arguments). And, of course, other stylistic differences are possible. I'd be tempted to write the above script as: #!/usr/local/lib/j601/jconsole 3 :'echo q: 0 ".>y' 2}.ARGV exit 0 Or, if I wanted errors to be indicated using a return code, and wanted a more "featureful" routine, I might instead do: #!/usr/local/lib/j601/jconsole 9!:29]1[9!:27 'exit 1 [ echo 13!:12>a:' echo q: ".;:inv 2}.ARGV exit 0 (The first line provides an error message and an exit code on hitting an error, and I changed the second line to allow the use of arbitrary J expressions rather than just numbers.) (Of course other variations are possible...) -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
