Here's a couple of other ways, although they're not all that pretty either.
I like the second one better.
".'xxx=:',;0{+`- NB. Method 0
4!:0<'xxx'
3
xxx=.0(1 : (;0{+`-)) NB. Method 1
4!:0<'xxx'
3

I wanted a verb. It seems pretty clear that I must want to use
atomic-rep assignment, since I put ` as the first character. But
when there is only one name, it is left as a boxed noun.
Ye Dic could be interpreted either way, but isn't it clear that
it would be better for this to assign a verb?
[what I was doing was
'`verbname' =: (complex selector expression) { v0`v1`v2...
and my ugly workaround is
'`verbname verbname' =: (2 # selector expression) ...
]
