It works for me when typing in the Emacs mode (bound to s-'), and when pasting it into GNU APL running in a shell. > Am I missing something (like a better keyboard)? Is that a standard > (IBM defined) operator? It is described on page 167 of DIS 8485(1997), so I assume it is part of ISO APL. I cannot check in the standard document mentioned in GNU APL's info page, since that link never worked for me (I cannot open that file in my pdf viewer and could not find another version on the net). I do not know, whether it is implemented in IBM's product. Since I am neither very knowledgeable about nor interested in the standard or IBM's implementation, you should maybe check yourself, or wait for comments of other list members, if you want to be absolutely sure.
