I ran jee from a simple DOS prompt, outside of emacs, and the problem is worse there: I only get as far as hi=: 0 : 0 then I can enter no more.
The same thing happens for hi=: 3 : 0 I have to break out of it with Ctl-Break. So, it looks like a jee problem? If so, it looks like I have to make the trade-off between either giving up GUI commands or giving up cut-and-paste into my session. I'm running this under emacs 21.3 under Windows XP, if that makes any difference. Thanks, Devon On 27 Feb 2007 14:01:36 +0000, Alexander Schmolck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

You mean you write or paste it in the *J* buffer then you don't get back a prompt after the ')\n'? It works fine for me with j5.04: hi=: 0 : 0 howdy pard ) hi howdy pard so maybe its a problem with the newest version of jee? Have you tried what happens if you run it outside of emacs? cheers, 'as ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
