Re: [Jgeneral] Problem with general/misc/prompt in loaded scripts
That's what I get when I run the code line-by-line. But when I load the script, I get this behavior: test:123 |spelling error (invalid inflection) | test:123 | ^ Note that I'm on a windows machine here. Linux may behave differently. I should have specified my use of windows (windows 11) in my initial post. Thanks, -- Raul On Tue, Aug 15, 2023 at 10:48 AM chris burke wrote: > > Did you make an entry after the prompt?

Re: [Jgeneral] Problem with general/misc/prompt in loaded scripts
Did you make an entry after the prompt? On my machine, after entering 123: abc=: prompt'test' test123 abc 123 On Tue, Aug 15, 2023 at 7:38 AM Raul Miller wrote: > > This script fails when loaded in jqt (tested in j9.4 and the current j9.5 > beta): > > require'general/misc/prompt' > abc=: prompt'test:' > echo abc > > In a sense it fails silently.

[Jgeneral] Problem with general/misc/prompt in loaded scripts
This script fails when loaded in jqt (tested in j9.4 and the current j9.5 beta): require'general/misc/prompt' abc=: prompt'test:' echo abc In a sense it fails silently. But it's a rather noisey form of silence. -- Raul -- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
