OK - thanks, Pascal. The 8.03 was the hint I needed.
Speaking of which, is there a simpler way to just install everything? This
'install' jpkg 'all'
doesn't do it - it mocks me by telling me how many addons I don't have
installed but gives no clue about how I might install them.
Since I know J, I deduced from the list of allowable left arguments to
"jpkg" that this
(<'install') jpkg&.>0{"1 'shownotinstalled' jpkg''
works but it seems far from intuitive or simple.
