I've taken a look at it. Sorry: I still can't see the correct APL code (on my Macintosh). I guess you have to purchase APL+ to get the font you're using, (APLIWIN?) because it's not downloadable from: https://sites.google.com/site/baavector/fonts (...which explains the whole nasty business. No wonder Ken invented J.) Without wishing to importune, would you like me to generate and insert the appropriate GIFs in this wiki page of yours? It wouldn't actually take me all that long to do. BTW I've just this minute asked the editor of Vector to make your paper's link clickable at: http://archive.vector.org.uk/21 But I agree a version of the paper on the J wiki would be nice to have, too. And, in time, you can insert J versions of the functions.
