The file jpp_test.ijs does indeed exist. In fact, I opened it in jqt (j806 beta
current) and now began to execute it line-by-line.
Its first line is:
MYDIR =: getpath_j_ '\/' rplc~ > (4!:4<'thisfile'){(4!:3) thisfile=:'' NB.
boilerplate to set the working directory
and that correctly executed:
MYDIR
/users/murray/j64-806-user/jpp/
Next line, which I executed, is:
require MYDIR, ‘continuations.ijs'
And that gave error:
|file name error: script
| 0!:0 y[4!:55<‘y'
However, the script continuations.ijs is definitely in the directory whose
value was reported as the value of MYDIR.
Still mystified.
