Thanks. I will rearrange jcwdpath so that jpathsep is called at the end,
i.e.
jcwdpath_j_=: jpathsep@(1!:43@(0$),])@((*@# # '/'_),])
Let me know if this still doesn't work.

Hi there,
I tried posting this a few weeks ago, but I now find it apparently wasn't
received. Apologies if this post repeats.
The following problem in verb require occurs under the following
circumstances -
* noun right argument of script file is given without a path
implying it is in the current working directory
* running under windows
The verb require_j_ checks if the full script name (getscripts_j_ ) is
in the maintained list of loaded scripts ( Loaded_j_ ).
If and only if the check comes back FALSE the script is loaded.
However because of the DOS and windows convention of using the back slash
'\' as a path separator this comes unstuck.
To add in current working directory path of a script name without a path,
getscripts_j_ uses fullname_j_ which in turn uses jcwdpath_j_ which in
turn uses 1!:43
Now under windows 1!:43 returns back slashes (well it does for me) in the
working directory path.
Further as Loaded_j_ list uses the forward slash '/' as path separator
there will be no match.
Hence script is loaded again when it should not be loaded.
The fix is going to be trivial, though adding a small overhead for
everyone because of another inanity of windows.
