I find reading multiline data into jconsole (or even into jqt) to be awkward unless the data are in a file. I would like to be able to read data from the clipboard directly into some pre-named noun.
The list of steps I use is annoyingly long. a) prepend the data with 'data =. (0 : 0)' , b) press <return>, c) copy the data into the clipboard, d) paste into the jconsole, e) press <return>, f) end with ')', and g) press <return> The original version of J for ipad (and likely, the updated version as well) offers the following verb which works quite well. I'm wondering if there is a similar verb for jconsole (or jqt) (that I may have missed). jfromcb =: 3 : 0 smoutput '<ioscmd>fromcb ' fread'data' ) Thanks, -- (B=) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
