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'
