Hello,

When an adverb is executed, it should follow line 3 of the parsing table (
https://www.jsoftware.com/help/jforc/parsing_and_execution_ii.htm ). But:


   - How does the interpreter know if it should execute the 'monadic' vs.
   'dyadic' adverb, e.g. 'infix' or 'table' in the case of '/' ?
   - And how does the interpreter infer the definite resulting
   part-of-speech? Is there a check testing whether the result of the adverb
   application is a procedure, and if so its arity?


The documentation states that "In all cases the word replacing the fragment
has a definite part of speech, and if it is a verb, a definite rank". How
this is achieved for all cases with an adverb is non-obvious to me...

Thanks!
Raoul
