Ric,
I think your guides will be very helpful.
I noticed a couple of typos in Defining_Verbs.
In the second bulleted line, I think "and" should be "an".
Later, once you mispell position without the first i.
You might want to add a summary of the process at
the end which says things like while the steps shown here
are just suggestive, they included starting with a multiline
explicit definition with an argument-order criterion,
documentation, reduction to a single line explicit
definition, conversion to tacit defintion using 13 : which
often produces verb trains of forks, tidying by considering
Passive, special code and aesthetics such as removing
Capped forks.
Did you consider showing an ambivalent version of
the verb for which the monadic form is something like
('abcde' $: ]) or 'abcde'&$: ?.
