completely untested, but if you are making non-noun definitions, then the right 
argument to : can be a boxed list.

adddouble =: 4 : (unneededtempvar =. 'a=.x+y';'x+a')

or if the boxedlist was previously saved

adddouble =: 4 : unneededtempvar

result is the same as a 2 line definition.

Subject: [Jprogramming] Feeding multiline verb definitions into JDo

It seems that when using the j.dll (libj.do) API from another language, JDo 
allows the defining of verbs. But I have only managed to define single line 
verbs so far. It seems adding LF or even '\n' into the command string parameter 
of JDo does not work (in the sense that it will return an error when using 
JGetM).
Does anyone know if it is possible to do multiline definitions, and if so how?
Thanks,Jon
