[Jprogramming] introducing j plus plus (jpp) - follow-up

[Raul Miller]

I can't tell you what's wrong with your configuration, but the file
name error suggests that the file
'/users/murray/j64-806-user/jpp/jpp_test.ijs does not exist. You
should be able to test that in finder (since that's an osx file naming
pattern).

Also, the right argument to timespacex needs to be quoted. (And, you
should not have a : in that particular line.)

I hope this helps,
