x;y is (<x),y if y is boxed, and* *(<x),<y if y is open. Or in seeking one expression to describe link ; we get: (<x),(<>y) NB. box x , box open y examples: a:;a:;<a: (<1);(<2);(<<1) I kind of appreciate that there isn't a special parser rule for this case now. I wonder how a language implementer would approach this. How do you avoid treating special cases and maintain simplicity in the code base? -Steven ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
