Thanks, although that doesn't completely answer the question:
That page (http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Scripts/QDoJ)
has some J code, If you run the code in the box (how to do that is
straightforward enough, but not exactly simple) it defines qdoj
the significance of '\..\release\noncpat' isn't the most obvious (and 8.3
filenames are soo 1980's)
guessing the current directory to locate that file is another issue. Nothing
that Search doesn't fix...
c:\j\j607\system\extras\help\release\some-non-existent-folder, unless '\..'
doesn't mean what I think it means.
Most folks would have thrown up their hands at this point. Good thing I'm not
most folks.

what is required for this to work?

Looking forward to seeing that in the documentation.
The future is now!
NB. http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/xmain.htm
1125 270 qdoj 'xmain'
These verbs behave like any other verb: they may be assigned
names, may serve as arguments to adverbs and conjunctions,
and must be used with an argument even though it may have no
significance (whence an empty string must be the argument,
as in 6!:0 '').
NB. http://www.jsoftware.com/help/release/noncpat.htm
1656 167 qdoj '\..\release\noncpat'
Foreigns (for example 6!:0) that ignored their arguments
previously permitted any argument to be used; now they
require an empty vector argument.
