Funny what constitutes “normal use” for different people!

I may have opened the Labs in my first few weeks of using J (was that 2001? 
wow.), but I haven’t since.

I don’t find the interactive/pagination workflow of Labs conducive for 
reference material. It’s tutorial material. I believe the intended use case for 
Labs is you go through any given Lab once or twice, but once you internalize 
the lesson, you put it on the shelf.

For reference material, i.e. “normal use” for me, I use the Dictionary, Wiki, 
and Forum search tool, supplemented by  open’scriptname’  where needed (though 
sadly we’re missing  edit’functioname’ from the good old days).
