The idea of the excersise is to reveal weak points
in API and documentation. So it's best done separately.
Then there could be a separate application, which is
also useful.
 
As I have learnt from some experience with the new
grid, the support for close working with nouns from
session is already there.
 
 - you can do "grid expression" and then copy/paste
the selected cells to such CSV grid or Excel.
That's the single most attractive feature of the new grid.

 - you can place a matrix on the clipboard with
"wdclipwrite clipfmt".
 
Speaking of "clipfmt" its definition is in like 6 different
scripts. There should be a policy of once-and-only-once.

Subject: Re: [Jprogramming] Grid API Usability


That is very good idea. So far I have been usingt Excel for this. I 
would like to see also a easy access to the new grid and learn the 
programming. I am not sure if I could complete all the edit features, 
but I would like to support this project as much I can. I want to add 
loading from J to show J arrays and also a easy acces to such grid 
from J session (like right click menu "Show this noun in J grid").
