This looks interesting, though it will take some time for me to digest
adequately.
One thing which occurs to me is that
begin_simple_server_or_client_jconsole.ijs and
begin_simple_server_or_client_jconsole_wsl.ijs in the making_basic
directory could be combined into a single script, though there may be
a difficulty there which I do not appreciate.
In other words, something like:
MAC_LINUX_HOME_DIR =: 'c:' [^:(0-:]) 2!:5'HOME'
Though it's been so long since I've set up my wsl instance (including
setting my home directory for the user account in the wsl /etc/passwd
file) that I'm not sure if there could be wsl issues with that
approach.
That said, with a change of install instructions, windows users could
be installing to their home directory instead of the system directory,
and using the same definition with an approach like:
MAC_LINUX_HOME_DIR =: 'USERPROFILE' [^:(0-:])&(2!:5) 'HOME'
And... that said, ... another possibility would be to allow
installation "anywhere" (within reason). For example, using
MAC_LINUX_HOME_DIR =: '/',~({.~ 1 i:~ e.&'/\');(4!:3''){~4!:4<'keyin'
This approach takes advantage of the fact that keyin would have been
defined before the time that MAC_LINUX_HOME_DIR is defined (and takes
advantage of the fact that '/' is a valid path separator on windows).
If this is done it might also make sense to replace the name
MAC_LINUX_HOME_DIR and WINDOWS_HOME_DIR with INSTALL_DIR
I hope some of this might be useful (but I don't know the constraints
you're working under),
