I tried this:
ioForm=: 0 : 0
bin h;
bin g;
grid size 2 2;
grid colwidth 1 300;
cc inlbl static left;cn "Input file ";
cc inpfl edit;
cc oulbl static left;cn "Output file";
cc outpfl edit;
bin z;
bin s;
bin z;
)
ioFiles=: 3 : 0
wd 'pc iofiles closeok;pn "Input/Output Files"'
wd ioForm [ wd 'minwh 220 40'
flnm=. 'FIXME' NB. setInputFile ''
wd 'pshow'
wd 'set inpfl text ',flnm
wd 'set outpfl text ',(] {.~ [:>:'/' i:~ ]) flnm NB. Same dir
wd 'set outpfl focus'
)
In j803, I didn't see any reduction in the space occupied by the
static elements.
Maybe j804 will be better?
(Or, maybe, once again, I have overlooked something obvious?)
Thanks,
