Ken,

I enjoyed your JD related presentation at the J conference.

I have an answer for your observation about creating JOD dictionaries on
Amazon.

There is a noun in jod.ijs  FREESPACE that sets a limit on how small a
volume can be before JOD will create a dictionary.  This value is set to
1meg which is about the smallest safe value for JOD dictionaries. If you
know there is enough space on the target volume you can try setting this
value to zero or even a negative number.

I strongly suspect the freedisk verb (below) does not work for Amazon or it
returns some meaningless byte count. You can also edit this verb and return
some large number if you don't want to change FREESPACE.

There are many ways to hack JOD.

Thanks for letting me know about this.

John Baker
