Hi Elias,
not on my machine:
⎕FX 'foo[x]' 'x'
1
)fns
Could it be that you had foo defined earlier?
The syntax error is then due to a niladic function called with an axis
(which is no a valid pattern in APL).
The return value of 1 is the index of the line that has caused the error
(foo[x]).

When I try to define a function that takes no arguments, but does

However, if I try to define the same function using ⎕FX, it gets defined:
*⎕FX 'foo[x]' 'x'*

But, it cannot be called:
*foo[1]*
