Thanks, Rob
Of course! And it worked.
I don't use the files script for user scripts under Windows,
as it's so easy to use File Explorer, or utilities in a dos window, so
had clean
forgotten that the script was available in the iPad J installation.
The iPad (and presumably other i-devices) seems paranoid in its
determination to stop users seeing their own folders/directories.
Still puzzled about 1!:55 - is it not implemented for iPad?

The iPad’s help window doesn’t seem to include a delete feature.
je only gets a file up for editing, while jd only lists files, as far as I can
see.
I found that 1!:0 gives a unix ls-type listing, which is useful.
So I thought 1!:55 might work for deleting scripts, etc. However, it returns a
domain error.
Thanks for any help,
Mike
ps Jprogramming is probably the wrong forum - sorry if so.
