Interesting page. Unicode is not really easy and in J it needs explanation.
I liked this phrase: "Turn your IQ philco down to approx. 60 and let's go..." I think we do need to get J for dummies in order to lower the threshold into J. Regarding J and Unicode we need more examples of going back and forth between different codes and fonts using J codes. Your page does a good job of starting such examples. 2010/11/27 Ian Clark <[email protected]> > But unicode is puzzling when you first meet it, especially utf-8, a > standard for embedding "unicode" characters like 'ç' as multi-byte > substrings in (what is otherwise) ascii text.
