Thanks Henry. Those hints will aid my redesign/replacement of the Zulu
addon.

Thanks, Raul.
As Raul hints, /System/Applications/Utilities/System Information.app is
normally launched by clicking the button: "System Report…" in "About This
Mac".
I already had this app residing in my Dock. Its display is dense, but the
Hardware overview tab is brief enough, and shows the follo

Almost always, that doesn't matter. If you are trying to answer the

Well, I thought that if it was effectively the same as inv defined as ^:_1
except faster then why not change the definition? But I got an error trying
it.

Really interesting. So, I thought that maybe inv could be redefined as
(;:^._1).
But all I get is:

1. An x argument to timex will give the average over x tries.
2. If z is short, you are mostly timing the execution of the adverbs and
conjunctions that make up the definition of the verb. For example, when
you write
;: inv
the system looks up inv as ^:_1 and then executes ;:^:_1 . That
