The short answer is  http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Scripts/QDoJ .  
Instructions:

   *  Launch J
   *  File>New ijs
   *  Visit  http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Scripts/QDoJ  and copy the script
   *  Paste into your new IJS
   *  Run > Window 

Now you can execute   1656 167 qdoj '\..\release\noncpat'  etc.

The other answer is:  you don't really need  qdoj  to work.  The letters stand 
for Quote Dictionary Of J and that's all it does.  It is merely an aid to 
communucation;  my message was intended to highlight parts of the DoJ and 
indicate their precise sources (the file along with byte offset and length).  
That is, I just used  qdoj  to point you at the documentation you sought.  

The tool is inadequate and I know it (particularly the interface), especially 
now that the entire DoJ is online.  So now I've started including URLs; you can 
always use those if you can't figure out what file  qdoj  is pulling from 
(there's rarely an obvious mapping between the links in the DoJ and the 
filenames underlying them).

PS:  I kept this message in programming forum so that you'd see my response; 
but perhaps follows up should be in chat forum.
