(Do you have a github fork of https://github.com/jsoftware/jsource that we can look at?)
Probably, since you're doing this quick and dirty, I imagine the thing to do is edit your copy of stdlib.ijs with a quick fix that gets you running. From your error message, it looks like your copy dies at the line corresponding to: https://github.com/jsoftware/jsource/blob/master/jlibrary/system/main/stdlib.ijs#L49 Which is, basically: if. notdef 'IFRASPI' do. if. UNAME -: 'Linux' do. cpu=. 2!:0 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' IFRASPI=: (1 e. 'BCM2708' E. cpu) +. (1 e. 'BCM2709' E. cpu) +. 1 e. 'BCM2710' E. cpu else. IFRASPI=: 0 end. end. Since you're probably not using a raspberry pi here, I'd just change that to: if. notdef 'IFRASPI' do. IFRASPI=: 0 end. (At some point, though, I imagine it would be nice to do an official openbsd port of J source.)
