You may use locked scripts, usually effective but not if users are
determined enough to hack your codes.

(NASA's tech briefs are a pretty good illustration of this principle.)

You can certainly package the j interpreter together with your own
application, likely including a small shell or batch script to start the
former on the latter; the end-user experience need not have seams.

Thank you Elijah for your interesting answer and ideas.
I guess the restricted portability prohibits J from being a mainstream
programming language?
As a retired IBM mainframe assembler programmer, I got used to being able to
easily export my ideas to similar sites so having to insist a possi

That said, it wouldn't be impossible to build a version of the
interpreter which includes the necessary artifacts.

You cannot; JE is a direct interpreter, and it does not produce objects.
That said, you are in luck: to most people who might want to discover your
methods, being written in j would be a greater hindrance than being written in
machine code.
Generally, obfuscation is somewhat fraught. If you
Hi
I have written a system in J that I believe would be of interest to commercial

If I wanted to achieve this, how could I export the object code to an
interested party without having to send the J source code and reveal my methods?
Thanks in advance
