When I run the fftw lab, I get ,---- | load jpath '~addons\fftw\fftw.ijs' | |interface error: script | | 0!:0 y[4!:55<'y' `---- I'm not sure what "persistent" means in this case, though. FWIW, I looked to see if I had an old copy of the lab.

I added "\math" in the last two and changed "main" to "math" in the first, and it seems to work. Is that a problem with PackMan, with FFTW, or with something else (including cockpit error on my part)? It seems easy to fix on the source side (i.e., not by each of us as users). I'll check LAPACK later to see if a similar problem is keeping it challenged.
