Eureka! This is definitely a bug! After digging and digging, here are the plain facts: 1) From within jgtkide, define global nouns m, n, x, y, u, and v. 2) Use the namelist, formatted namelist, and selective namelist verbs. (These verbs are highlighted in the stdlib.ijs file located in the repo at http://www.jsoftware.com/trac/base7/browser/trunk/main/main/stdlib.ijs) 3) The selective namelist and formatted namelist have a bug, in that they neglect to identify the x and y globals. Their relative, namelist, however behaves as expected. In both monadic and dyadic forms, namelist displays the variables of interest. I am gaining better comfort with this library... Life is good. Notes: selective namelist = nl formatted namelist = names namelist = namelist (of which both forms are flawless) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
