on Stack Exchange code review it seems impossible to search for any J
articles, comments, code snippets etc. and I could suggest that rather
than bother about whether to call the latest version J4, J904 etc
which is trivial, you do something really useful such as change the
name of the language to something sensible that can be searched upon.
I know that in the past radical changes have been made to J eg
changing x. and y. to x and y and I also know that a change of name
would take a while to filter through but I do feel that eventually
this change would have incredible benefits, similar to the recent long
overdue introduction of sensible error messages which has been a real
boon to me!
