Devon McCormick recently posed to the wiki a script which will allow
you to save your variables into an apl-workspace-like file which can
then be loaded and the variables defined. I like the idea, and
I haven't studied Devon's code carefully, but I have two questions:
how does this differ from, and why is it better than, the package
facility included in J? Using that, one could save all nouns by
pack nl 0
then save them to a disk file (using jfiles functions). Then read
them in and use pdef to re-establish them. Similarly for verbs, etc.
