[Jprogramming] The Accessible Dictionary released

[Martin Kreuzer]

Thank you very much indeed for this beautiful piece of work.

As someone who uses J only occasionally (on a very simple level) I 
tend to forget things (despite taking notes) and have to dig in ever 
so often again.
This looks a great resource easing that first step.

In the same context I've very much welcomed the recent discussion 
with simple "fork" examples.

Looks like a typo:
On the "Floor" page of NuVoc, under heading "Common Uses" the first 
two lines should start as
[1] Floor (and 
<http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/gtdot#monadic>Ceiling 
(>.)) can also be useful ...
[2] Floor (and 
<http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/gtdot#monadic>Ceiling 
(>.)) can be useful ...
showing the symbol for "Ceiling".
