I would like to send a program to users who do not have J on their

See: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Guides/Standalone_Applications
For publishing a J application I have used Advanced Installer
(http://www.advancedinstalled.com)
You can download it for free and use the Simple project mode without a
license. It produces
a .msi installer archive.
I was quite embarrassed in my first attempt when users reported an
error. I have a startup.ijs file
where I define 'exit' and 'echo' which I used in my program. Even
though I tested from a separate
directory (I made a complete copy of c:\j601 tree and then cut out
things I thought not needed)
it still picked up the startup file from the c:\j601 tree when I did my
test runs of the install package.
