You might also find LoBrow handy. It's not released as an addon but you can
download the script (lobrow.ijs) here:

http://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/User:Ian_Clark/LoBrow

I use LoBrow a lot. But it's a personal tool and lacks documentation.
However it's easy to dump a given locale as a J script…

++ Select the locale (top left panel), e.g. "z" or "base"
++ click the bottom-right button: "Script > temp /> ME".
---The resulting script is: ~temp/10.ijs
…sorry, "10" is hard-coded: to change it you'll need to edit lobrow.ijs
itself.

LoBrow is powerful enough to develop code (LoBow itself is maintained that
way). But heed Chris's warning -- and don't. It's really a tool for quickly
exploring and hacking other people's code.
