I've been in R land for a while, but I'm back to J for a few things I
want (and need) to do.  

Aside: I much prefer J to R, but they do have some nice packages.  Then
again, sometimes, if one thinks, one can do rather directly in J what
one needs a package to do in R. :-)

I don't have a working J602 GTK on my Debian Squeeze, probably because
of a Java issue (I do think I have Sun Java installed, but it's probably
not aliased to what J602 wants).  Thus I'm trying to learn enough
quickly about J701 to see if it does what I need.

I'm trying some labs, but I can't find the keyboard shortcut for
"advance."  It seems to suggest "Ctrl-.", which I interpret to mean
"Hold the control key down and then press the full stop key."  That
would seem to parallel what I recall from J6, but it doesn't do anything
for me here.  The 'a' menu pick works just fine.

What am I missing?  What should I do to advance a lab?  FWIW, my
keyboard is set to Dvorak layout, but switching to QWERTY doesn't seem
to help.

Thanks,

Bill

PS: What I really want to do is figure out how to load a script file I
wrote for J6.  Quick pointers would be great.
