Dec 15, 2014 at 11:07 comment added Gregory Higley Thanks. I know the vocab well and visit it often. In fact, I went straight there when I saw that your suggestion worked. Unfortunately that vocab entry could be a little more explicit. It's natural to assume that the gerund conjunction joins the atom itself rather than converting it to a string first. That's what I always thought, but I'm "happy" to find out I'm wrong.

Dec 15, 2014 at 10:53 comment added Gregory Higley Ah, I see. All this time I misunderstood gerunds. It appears to be strings all the way down. Fascinating.
Dec 15, 2014 at 10:50 comment added Gregory Higley @ɐɔıʇǝɥʇuʎs That works, but where is it documented that you can skip the quoting of strings with `?
Dec 15, 2014 at 7:39 comment added ɐɔıʇǝɥʇuʎs A massive necro, but you could save 4 chars by replacing 'Unhappy';'Happy' with Unhappy`Happy.
May 1, 2011 at 15:55 comment added Gregory Higley The reason I can't leave out the parentheses around ("."0) is that conjunctions apply to the entire preceding train of verbs to which they're attached, which is not what I want. If I say +/@:("."0)@":, that is very different from +/@:"."0@:, which is actually (+/@:".)"0@:.

Apr 28, 2011 at 20:12 comment added Gregory Higley I can't remove the parentheses around ("."0). That produces a rank error, but if I don't split 'Happy' and leave the result boxed, I can save a character.
Apr 27, 2011 at 5:36 comment added Jesse Millikan You can get a character by not splitting out 'appy'. I think you can also remove the parentheses aroundd ("."0) - adverbs bind tighter than conjunctions.

Got my "Unh' and "H" reversed. Oops!
