Thanks, that does help.

That said, I am currently wishing for a variation on jijx where I get
one expression and its result in a browser window.

I have encountered a variety of interesting looking sentences which
give huge (bigger than one screen) results, and I would like to
organize them as browser tabs (I use browser tabs as a sort of "todo"
list, when plowing through large quantities of information).

If I could click on a previously executed sentence and have the option
to display it, with its result, in a new window, that would be very
convenient for me (but I am not yet to the point where I feel
comfortable in trying to add that feature to jhs).

The downfall of this approach would be expressions which cause side
effects -- if you have side effects, you need to know something about
what happened before to really understand what's going on.  But,
ultimately, that's something you can learn to live with.
