dfns.dws is a workspace which is supplied together with Dyalog APL. It's is a collection of examples of programming in direct functions, which were written by multiple people since 1990s.
Late John Scholes was the editor of this workspace. He presented a talk about the contents of the workspace at Dyalog '09.[1]
Example usage
As with other workspaces, workspace dfns can be copied into the current workspace using system command )copy:
)copy dfns
⍝ Example call: timing an expression using function `cmpx`
1 cmpx '((1e6∘|2∘×)⍣871) 1'
0.0001302490234375
Alternatively, the workspace can be copied using system function ⎕CY (copy workspace):
⍝ Copy dfns workspace into a namespace called `dfns`
{(⍎⍵⎕NS⍬).⎕CY ⍵}'dfns'
⍝ Example call: calendar function from the new namespace
