Right, I did think it was that easy ;) As the subject of this thread clearly implies we, Dan and I, were talking about tacit adverbs. "The use of illegal steroids is not appreciated in this venue! :)" Incidentally, the size of linear representation of Adv has a lot to do with the verbosity of li

Let me state first that I do not disagree with your proposal and what Pascal is also suggesting (as I understand them). Actually, that is what I suggested to Thomas to explore as change for the current implementation for Jx, before this thread started, in a private conversation. The current behav

Box draw should work in JHS html written to the log. But you need a font that supports them and it sounds as if your default font does not have those characters. You can use css to select the font to use. On Sat, Mar 19, 2016 at 10:15 AM, Brian Schott wrote: > I elected to use the CSS for tables

Every pearl begins with a grain of sand. Still, perhaps, I should try to be more than grit. That said... I took a look at what you're doing here. And my first attempt went something like this: load '/users/rauldmiller/j64-804-user/temp/111.ijs' hg |value error: hg ...er... Anyways, after

Eric, I think there is some other problem, because not only am I already using CSS for font family, and I am using "Monaco" and have experimented with "Courier New" and others. I have done another test as follows. Before reading on, please note that no error occurs below if instead of just < in

2016-03-20 Thread Eric Iverson
You are correct that there is another problem. Normal display from J uses special chars (values less than 32) for the box draw chars. JHS converts these values to the box draw utf8 (2 byte) values to get the proper char displayed. This is not done within a jhtml display so you will have to do it.

Or move that functionality to a different primitive (which I imagine is what you have been working on with your Jx), instead of persisting it as a bug. -- Raul On Sun, Mar 20, 2016 at 7:06 PM, Jose Mario Quintana < jose.mario.quint...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dan wrote: > > " > All these puzzles ar

Re: [Jprogramming] Tail recursion

2016-03-20 Thread Jose Mario Quintana
The difficult problem is to convert any arbitrary recursive verb to a tail-recursive form automatically. If a recursive verb is already in tail-recursive form it is better to support that form directly. The Jx interpreter does this via the tail recursion optimization adverb (O.) : NB. Jx Inte
