I can think of these areas that you might cause problems:

	(1) File primitives differ from one APL to another.
	(2) Certain other primitives are not universal.
	(3) File naming conventions are not the same everywhere.

You might have to dig into the code and replace the IPSharp file primitives 
with the corresponding STSC primitives on your machine and you might have 
to rename the workspace to save it on the HP3000.
 
I am very much interested in WS interchange, and would like to know how 
you make out.  Please keep us posted!
