[Jprogramming] Drawing program in J?

[Oleg Kobchenko]

Ronan may have referred to wd 'setinvalid' which
used to give (pre-t beta) domain error.

There is an alternative version now, which compensates
for j601 pre-t beta (that and glwindoworg reset before 
explicit glpaint). These are tiny changes, so it's OK
to code against that to update later when t+ comes out 
for Mac.

See if it would work.
