Greetings, The enclosed is the beginnings of a proposed README.txt file for the SQL extension. I think documentation can help minimize newbie frustration and improve GNU APL usage.
The loading instructions, below, will depend on a possible workspace being added to the package. The usage section need to be fleshed out. I can complete this once we settle on the workspace issue. Thanks. Blake ------------------------------- SQL interface for GNU APL Elias Mårtenson <loke...@gmail.com> This package provides an SQL interface for GNU APL. It supports Sqlite and PostgreSQL.
