Bill,
 I've found that problem - indeed IFQT gave 0 on my installation.
So I reinstalled (just as I'd done before) and IFQT gave 1. And
viewmat and plot worked! Then I loaded my profile of definitions
and things stopped working and IFQT was zero again. Upon looking
into my profile, I found at the end
                      IFQT_z_=: 0
Duh! I put that in the last time we were trying to run down some
problem & I forgot to remove it. I see that the
"Graphics - gl2 commands" also seems to run.
Many thanks for your patience in helping with this silly error.

My problem which stops me from using j801 on my windows machine is
something I brought up earlier: I make a lot of use of keyboard
input in programs:
enter=: [:". 1!:1&1:
  a=. enter''
If I use that, J crashes - pops a box that says "jqt.exe has
stopped working" Any ideas what might cause that? "enter" works
in j601, j602 & j701 on this machine (Windows 7).

                                       Patrick

I suspect the noun IFQT is not set properly in your case.  Can
you remove/rename the whole j install folder, download and
install the j801-64 again from http://www.jsoftware.com/download/j801/

then start jconsole to run install'all'

restart jqt and type IFQT to confirm it will return 1.

 I really like the look of the j801 window. But I've encountered
issues which keep me from making much use of j801. Since I have
little knowledge of (or interest in) the GUI aspects of J, I hesitate
to ask for help, since I may not understand the answer!
But at some point 801 will be out of beta, and maybe others will
face these issues.

 Here's why I don't use j801 under Mac OS 10.6.8.

 Every time a new release of j801 comes out, I load it and give
it a try. But I still have the same problems. j64-801 does run,
but the graphics utilities are a problem. Plot works by invoking
Adobe Acrobat, which will not display a file unless I close the
current display. How can I change the display program (maybe to
Preview?) to something that will display new plots - either in a new
window, or just overwrite the old one?

 More serious is that viewmat (which I find really useful and very
important for what I do)  does not work at all. It simply produces
no display. Here's what I get on my MacBook Pro,

   JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25 build: Feb  6 2011 16:16:29
Library: 8.01.011
Qt IDE: 1.0.9
Platform: Darwin 64
Installer: j801 beta install
InstallPath: /Users/jph/j64-801

 load 'viewmat'
 viewmat 10 10$100?500

displays nothing (no error message either). and  running the viewmat
lab also displays no viewmat window.
----------------------------------------------------
Also in labs, OpenGL throws error message:
not found: /Users/jph/j64-801/addons/graphics/opengl/opengl.ijs
and also a pop-up error box.

-----------------------------------------------------
If I try to run the "Graphics - gl2 commands" lab, I get:

error in: gl2lab_g_paint
rank error: l
       glrgb__l y[[l=.locGL2_jgl2_

and endless series of error boxes forces me to kill J
with "force quit". (Jbreak doesn't work.)

======================================================================
Now, I would rather run the 32-bit j801, because I often want LAPACK, which
is not supported under 64-bit. But, j801 (32-bit) doesn't work for me at all:

/Users/jph/j801/bin/jconsole ; exit;
[uni:~] jph% /Users/jph/j801/bin/jconsole ; exit;
   JVERSION
Engine: j701/2011-01-10/11:25
Library: 8.01.011
Platform: Darwin 32
Installer: j801 beta install
InstallPath: /Users/jph/j801

After I have run "install 'all' " and then run jqt, I get:

/Users/jph/j801/bin/jqt ; exit;
[uni:~] jph% /Users/jph/j801/bin/jqt ; exit;
dyld: Library not loaded: 
@executable_path/../Qt/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui
  Referenced from: /Users/jph/j801/bin/jqt
  Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:
        /Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui: mach-o, but wrong 
architecture
Trace/BPT trap
logout
=========================================================================

I'd appreciate any ideas on how to fix these issues.

                                                         Patrick

PS. I also have a linux box at work and a PC at home. J801 does not work
    for me on those either. Details later.
