Eric,

Thanks for your reply.

I have experimented a little with gd_.. in the following way (I am showing
my jijx window session below).

   runapp_jhs_ 6
   'NEW' app6 'load'
   jev_get_data_NEW_app6_

Right after I enter that last line, that line itself changes to the
following line, which is correct, but a little surprising, because it
replaces the entered line.

load

But I think I see what has happened, because entering
jev_get_data_app6_app6_ is replaced -- as expected by analogy -- with
calendar or whatever the most recent verb requested in app6. So it looks
like a good experiment.

​I think a good (additional?)​ app building example might show how one page
(containing a form, for example)  can call another page (acknowledging
receipt of the form, for example) to replace the first page. Or maybe I
missed an example that does so.

Thanks, again,
