You're welcome.
I should have said that I often "cheat", as follows:
for a smallish script, assuming you've got email send/receive
enabled on both
devices, copy-paste script on one device to an email, send to self,
copy-paste from email to a J edit window. Works fine from laptop to
iPad.
iPad to laptop not quite so good, as I usually end up with double
line-spacing.
Large scripts tend to be difficult to select and copy at the iPad end.
Also, item (0) below applies to the laptop, in my case.
Cheers,
Mike

Thank you very much Mike; you would be astounded at how little I already know.
Your input is appreciated.

You probably already know all this, Jim!
Mea culpa, I only use JHS occasionally, for the purpose of transferring scripts
between this Windows laptop and my iPad.
So to get a script from the laptop to the iPad:
0) I've got a small script ~user/myserver.ijs; here it is:
myserver =: 3 : 0
load '~addons/ide/jhs/jjserver.ijs'
serveaddress =: init_jjserver_ 'pswd'
)
echo myserver''
1) Fire up JHS - for me it runs (in) the browser window,
http://localhost:65001/jijx#,
Here's a snapshot of the session:
J Http Server
load'~user/myserver.ijs'
client access with: jjset '192.168.1.101
:65001 pswd'
I need to take note of that string!
2) On the iPad, my '~user/start.ijs' script also includes a verb
what I wrote myself, myserver:
(typing anew here, so beware errors!)
myserver =: 3 : 0
'' myserver y
:
jj 0
if. y -: '' do.
y =. '192.168.1.104:65001 pswd' NB. presumably varies for other
users?!
else.
y =. y,:65001 pswd' NB. if the default doesn't match the JHS
value observed above
end.
jjset y
if. #x do.
echo 'getting ',x
myget x
end.
)
3) Also, myget:
myget =: 3 : 0
jjget'~user/',y
)
4) Fire up the iPad's J701 app
5) To handshake with the laptop and immediately get a script from ~user:
'p632.ijs' myserver '192.168.1.101' NB. My default access string is wrong!
6) To get another script from the laptop,
myget'p633.ijs'
or
jjget'~user/p633.ijs'
7) I haven't defined myput!
8) Writing this, it looks as if I should have defined a noun
in the iPad's start.ijs, perhaps
DEFAULTADDRESS='192.168.1.104'
and have start.ijs echo this value on start-up, so that you know
when it's necessary to enter a different address. But I haven't!
9) I get confused with the iPad version's handling of script
extensions, eg '.ijs' - I tend to add dots, eg p632.1.ijs which
seems to confuse "je" . I hadn't realised "load" was available, so
thankyou, Jim!
I've tailored my stuff for more convenient swapping of files
between my ~user folders. You might of course choose to define
mygetaddon to save a bit of typing!
Any use?

Someday I hope to be smart enough to know that I am not smart enough to learn J.
Until then, would someone tell me how use jjget instead of jal to load whatever
I am missing when e.g.
load ‘trace’ or load ‘viewmat’
fails using J701 on my iPhone/iPad?
(I did get connected to my old Mac via jjget; I get confused with questions
like:
- How do I know what directory/library I need?
- Do I need j701 on the Mac?
- How do I get the jj server running on j701 on my Mac?
- Can I use jjget to restore jal, thus avoiding the confusion by loading
everything?)
