Jd tutorials are normal scripts that are run under spx. spx allows one to run any script in a manner similar to a lab.
spx can be used to explore any script. Open the script in your editor. Then open it under spx (spx 'filename'.) You can then run any line or sequence of lines in the script. Note that spx, although develped orginally in JHS, can be used the same way in Jqt (ctrl+j advance) and in jconsole. I use spx all the time. But tastes and mileage vary. In the future all old labs will be converted to a form that can be run under spx. New labs will be much easier to develop, and I hope that encourages user contributions. The best way to appreciate spx is to use it to develop a lab in an area that you are interested in.
