I think Raul assigned "smprompt_jijs_" arbitrarily in his original
message to over-write that definition as it's non-console code.

NB. This works but not as a single line prompt/response:
   prompt=: 3 : '1!:1]1 [ smoutput ((4) 1!:2~ ])y'
   ans=. prompt 'Enter something:'
Enter something:
1 2.3 4j5
   ans
1 2.3 4j5

NB. Now it gets weird:
   13 : '1!:1]1 [ smoutput ((4) 1!:2~ ])y'
huh?
'huh?'"_

   13 : '(1!:1]1) y'
wha?
twice?
3 : '(1!:1]1) y'

Is this essay anywhere other than this "Temp" area -
