This is exactly where I am coming from. My group and I have just begun evaluating J. So everything is new. Thru this initial evaluation, we will primarily be working interactively. Between the 5 of us, we had differing views about how to address common issues. Issues that we were having while going through interactive tutorials. Yet at the same time we wished to keep our environments homogeneous. Our decision-making process will be improved when we converge in a few weeks. Our machines will be interchangeable. And we shall not have 5 alternative approaches to the same issue. That is just for our own benefit. I am glad to hear that it is throwaway code. That's what we had decided to do. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
