"If all you have is a hammer, it's time to put another nail in the J coffin."
Although the J executable is a free (as in beer) download from Jsoftware (the only place I found a downloadable J), with regard to the source code, the J page at http://www.jsoftware.com/source.htm states: > Fees > > Jsoftware licenses source for all the Jsoftware binaries. There are several > factors in determining the cost of source licenses. Primary is the source > itself: J Engine (portable C); Windows GUI support (C++); and Unix GUI > support (Java). Secondary is the scope of use: internal; distributed products; > and competitive (to Jsoftware) products. And finally the platforms: Windows; > Unix; PocketPC; etc. The price range is from $10,000 to $400,000. Regular > updates to our current source levels are available for separate update fees.
