I'm coming in late, so may be missing what Andrew's question is. There is no binary for jpkg -- it is a verb defined in the script
~system/util/pacman.ijs On my Windows 7 32-bit system that translates to c:/users/kip murray/j701/system/util/pacman.ijs Below are the verb jpkg and its cover jpkg_z_ , copied from the above script. More important than the verbs themselves may be the question, how did I find them? The answer is, I knew from examples in http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/JAL/Package%20Manager/jpkg/ that the first step for using jpkg in the J console is to do load 'pacman' That told me to look in noun Public_j_ (just type its name) to see the file name for pacman (which I give above). (I can never remember the spelling of Public_j_ so I used names_j_'' to find the spelling.) Then look through script pacman.ijs to find the two verbs. For what it's worth here are the two verbs. jpkg=: 4 : 0 select. x case. 'history';'manifest' do. x showfiles_console y case. 'install' do. install_console y case. 'reinstall' do. remove_console y install_console y case. 'remove' do. remove_console y case. ;:'show search showinstalled shownotinstalled showupgrade status' do. x show_console y case. 'update' do. updatejal '' case. 'upgrade' do. upgrade_console y case. do. msg=. 'Valid options are:',LF msg=. msg,' history, install, manifest, remove, reinstall, show, search,',LF msg=. msg,' showinstalled, shownotinstalled, showupgrade, status,',LF msg,' update, upgrade' end. ) jpkg_z_=: 3 : 0 'help' jpkg y : a=. conew 'jpacman' res=. x jpkg__a y destroy__a'' res ) On 11/6/2011 4:43 PM, Björn Helgason wrote: > While the package manager is active you will find the jpkg verb active in > the z locale > > 2011/11/6 Andrew Pennebaker<andrew.penneba...@gmail.com> > >> jpgk may be installed by default, but the binary isn't added to PATH, and I >> can't find where the jpkg binary is, in any case. >> >> Cheers, >> >> Andrew Pennebaker >> www.yellosoft.us >> >> On Sat, Nov 5, 2011 at 6:30 PM, Ric Sherlock<tikk...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> On Sun, Nov 6, 2011 at 8:21 AM, Ric Sherlock<tikk...@gmail.com> wrote: >>>> On Sun, Nov 6, 2011 at 7:20 AM, Andrew Pennebaker >>>> <andrew.penneba...@gmail.com> wrote: >>>> \> I tried using the J GUI to install the base library, but by default, >>> gtkide >>>>> isn't installed.
