Henry:

A few quick suggestions.

1. I agree with Roger that mentioning gerunds other than with @. and } may
be confusing.

2. I suggest putting monads -,+,% in the section starting with Floor.

3. I think the indexing section is too complicated.

_1 1 { A
(<2 1) { A

are OK: the others may potentially be omitted.

4. Formatting: suggest giving an example like

0j0": 2.7

5. From PolyDeriv to the end of the section could be omitted if space is
short.

6. While it only works on Unix, 2!:2 is very valuable.

7. If this is for people coming from another language, I suggest putting a
brief section on control structures (not the keywords) with examples along
the lines of

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ---> if (c y) y=f(y)

8. Under Transpose:

'col0 col1 col2'=:|: table

9. AppendItems and Laminate always had me confused to begin with: perhaps
your examples could distinguish them.

10. Bond does not seem to be there.  The fact that m&v can be used
dyadically can be confusing to beginners who think they are "making a
monad out of a dyad."

Best wishes,

John
