I am not real familiar with Windows so I hope the following
questions don't sound too foolish.

I have J running under Windows on a 386 but ...

* When I type F1 for help I get a Windows fullscreen 
  message which says the help screen is not a Windows window;
  (But F1 works perfectly under DOS.)

* I get a domain error if I try to use "0!:0" so I can't
  can't edit a file or get a listing of my files. (Actually,
  this question assumes I could use "0!:0" to invoke an
  editor under Windows, is this the case?)
  
* Is there an example fullscreen J Window prompt?

  Thanks!!
