But I think that jtask is window specific. For example its LAUNCH verb
LAUNCH=: ('gnome-open';'open';'start') {::~ ('Linux';'Darwin')i.<UNAME
does not work well in linux because it depends on gnome desktop and
not work for other such as kde. Even when gnome is used, a program
can be launch in various ways,
the same terminal,
new tab of the same terminal
a new terminal
gnu screen
a new floating window
a new tab of an existing window
