Yes, I'd love to get my hands on Jupyter-plus-J. AFAIK Jupyter raids Mathematica for its "workbook" concept, which theoretically obsoletes the platforms we have for delivering courseware, viz Jwiki and jqt. So I dived straight into https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/Jupyter, downloaded the zipfile, unpacked it and launched ~/JDemo/jupyter-notebook.command As it crashed in flames it told me the package was built for Mac OS X 10.12, aka Sierra. The highest my early-2009 iMac can go is 10.11 (El Capitan). At that point I discovered what I'd completely forgotten - that I'd done all this a year ago, and got exactly the same result, which I'd written up in detail. Nothing's moved since then. So… unless I can afford to buy a new Mac, hopefully before the GB£ crashes when Britain falls over the Brexit cliff at the end of March, I'm condemned to bringing up the trailing edge of white hot technology for the rest of my natural. Funny thing… just about everyone I know with a Mac who doesn't just sit there admiring it is still running El Capitan. I guess it's cheeky to ask for a Jupyter package that drops the OS X level a notch (to 10.11). Not to mention raising J by 2 notches to 8.07. Apple – and everyone else – forgets that it's ever been the killer apps that advance the killer system, not the other way round.
