Shouldn't all debug pages go on or under the page
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Debug? For now this page is primarily for
the gui debugger, but should be expanded to include all the foreign debug
functions. Then NuVoc can point to this page.

Right. The Foreigns page is just for reference. We still need a page
devoted to Debug and how to use it.

That's certainly the logical place for it, and it's the logical format

the Foreigns page of NuVoc.
A beginner might still need a bit more guidance however...
I've written a stub page:
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Vocabulary/Debug
which I invite someone else to finish who knows *debug* better than I do.
How about a simple worked example for how to debug an error in jconsole
(or
jqt used in a jconsoling way)...?
How to do it with Run > Debug ⌘K is best described elsewhere, e.g. under
[[Debug]].

IMHO debugging in J is not the happy reassuring experience it could be.
Any
newbie who consults NuVoc looking for debug enlightenment is all set to
spend a distressing two hours.
Is that just my lack of familiarity with the geewhiz stuff that's
there?
Because I only resort to (13!:) and the debugger When All Else Fails.
Then I go straight to
https://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/dx013.htm
which for me is the most helpful page in the whole of J Help.
It's a tall order to improve on it. If NuVoc is going to get an
ancillary
page on Debugging, it could do worse than link dx013 and leave it at
that.
Actually I do have a small improvement on dx013 to offer. For my own
use
I've replaced every 13!:* reference with the corresponding stdlib cover
verb. I attach the resulting doctored webpage as a .webarchive, hoping
it
won't get stripped off.
If it does, then PM me for a copy.

I have ported debug_verbs.htm over as Debug/Verbs, and included it in
the debug navigator.
Someone (probably me) should go in and "merge" the two tables of
contents on the page. (In other words, add the __NOTOC__ keyword to
disable the wiki generated table after replicating its functionality
in the table with descriptive comments a short distance down on the
page.)

This should be a new child page of
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Debug
.

That's pretty good. It needs to be referred to from the NuVoc
ancillary
pages.
It seems to be about the graphical debugger. Some users, as I
understand, use debug commands from the keyboard. Some
documentation
for them would be wolcome.
