Jose,
You said: You might be interested to know that 13 : '...' occasionally is too
smart; some verbs, such as ?, which do not always produce the same result given
the same argument, sometimes do not mix well with 13 : '...'; for example,
Something is not wrong when verbs with ? don't agree. I would worry is they
did agree. They areproducing different results each time they are used.

Linda,
If you want a one-liner ... such that 13 : '...' would reproduce
[: <"2 ({~ [: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */)~
[: <"2 ({~ ([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */))~
then you can work backward starting with
13 : 'x ([: <"2 ({~ ([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */))~) y'
[: <"2 ({~ ([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */))~
followed by,
13 : '<"2 y ({~ ([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */)) x'
[: <"2 ({~ ([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */))~
However, the next step produces a different form of the verb,
13 : '<"2 (([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */)x) { y'
[: <"2 ] {~ [: ([: \:"1~ |. $ [: ?.~ */) [
because 13 : '...' is smart but not smart enough. You could continue as,
13 : '<"2 (\:"1~ (|.x) $ ?.~ */x) { y'
[: <"2 ] {~ [: \:"1~ ([: |. [) $ [: ?.~ [: */ [
but the tacit verb produced might disappoint you,
You might be interested to know that 13 : '...' occasionally is too smart; some
verbs, such as ?, which do not always produce the same result given the same
argument, sometimes do not mix well with 13 : '...'; for example,
( u=. 3 : ' T + (T=. ? y)' )
3 : ' T + (T=. ? y)'
and
( v=. 13 : ' T + (T=. ? y)' )
? + ?
do not mean the same process.
I hope it helps
