Hi all,

I bought Part 1 of Cliff Reiters book "Fractals, Visualization and J, Fourth 
edition“ and am trying out the introduction examples.

It first tells me to load an add-on, dwin.ijs [1], and then to create a window, 
which works:

   load '~addons/graphics/fvj4/dwin.ijs'
   _1 _1 1 1 dwin 'hello'

Now, some data is created in p1:

   ]p1=: |:2 1 o./ 1r4p1*i.5
          1           0
   0.707107    0.707107
6.12323e_17           1
  _0.707107    0.707107
         _1 1.22465e_16

And finally, the data is supposed to be drawn with ‚dpoly‘, which fails:

   0 255 0 dpoly p1

|psel : command failed: psel
: wd
|   (LF,~wd ::(''"_)'qer')    (13!:8)3
   

The book states that the examples were tested with J8.04, I’m on 
J9.4.2/j64arm/darwin. There is an official repository containing the code for 
the book [2], but it might be out of date anyways.

Is the code incompatible with J9.4 or am I doing something wrong?

- Nils
