thanks, I'll have a look at it.../Joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Oleg Kobchenko Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2006 5:24 PM To: Programming forum Subject: RE: [Jprogramming] Deploying an application to a computer whichdoesnot already have J installed
There's been a locale browser for J circa some j40x ~1999, It's part of okole package: http://olegykj.sourceforge.net/scrshots/okole-shot.html Presently, it runs on Windows only, as it requires OLE. I have been thinking of adapting it to the new grid. --- Joe Tibollo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Chris: > > Thanks for answering my question. > > Its been many years since I last looked at J.
