The way I dreamed it up...

Mean=: (+/ % #)
    NB. average. sum divided by count.... this reminds me of the first time 
.....
    NB. example: Mean 1 2 3 4 5   ---> 3

and then when you typed Mean by itself in a J window, it would display the 
comments along with the definition, with the comments formatted below as typed. 
 That's what I meant by 'special parsing'
