The card that Ric Sherlock & I did, https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/File:J602_RefCard_color_letter_current.pdf, tries to get it all on 2 pages.  We are working on a J9 version, as a very-low-priority task.

I too would like to see Sergey's cheatsheet on J Wiki.
There's no rule that says NuVoc should only have one portal.

Why does https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/NuVoc take the form it does?
Because it's the best cheat-sheet? No – that's never been established.
If memory serves, it aimed to resemble Voc (see line 3 of the above link) in
the built-in J online help:
https://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/vocabul.htm
because Voc was familiar, and NuVoc was being tentatively offered as an
alternative.

Voc did at least fit on one screen, more-or-less. Screens as they were 20
years ago.

In this age of iPhones, the all-on-one-page cheat-sheet is a lost cause.
But there may be no all-round best replacement. Rather: horses for courses.

Might a newcomer prefer something like this? –

5!:5 <'dlb'

}.~ (=&' ' (i.) 0:)


xp 5!:5 <'dlb'

}. Behead * Drop

~ Reflex * Passive / Evoke

( Left Parenthesis

= Self-Classify * Equal

& Bond / Compose

' ' Const or Pronoun/verb

( Left Parenthesis

i. Integers * Index Of

) Right Parenthesis

0: Constant Function

) Right Parenthesis

5!:5 <'words'

[: jpath '~proj/words/' , ijs


xp 5!:5 <'words'

[: Cap

jpath Const or Pronoun/verb

'~proj/words/' Const or Pronoun/verb

, Ravel * Append

ijs Const or Pronoun/verb


Yes, xp exists, and I've used it for years. But I never got round to
distributing it, not wanting to clutter stdlib with my numerous cerebral
crutches – it's big enough. PM me for a copy.

I made a cheatsheet for all J primitives about a year ago. I thought
somebody might find it useful too. Here's the link:
https://sergeyqz.github.io/jcheatsheet/.

That looks like it would be nice as a wiki page, with
[[Category:Index]] and of course the appropriate wikilinks for each of
the primitives.

Thanks,
