Hi,
I have added $HOME/.config/gnu-apl/preferences in SVN 317.
The files read are now:
*1. /etc/gnu-apl.d/preferences (or /usr/local/etc/gnu-apl.d/preferences)**
**2. $HOME/.gnu-apl/preferences, and**
**3. $HOME/.config/gnu-apl/preferences**(if 2.failed).**
*
I believe that paths on the command line are rather cumbersome.
A better approach could be profiles inside (or next to) the preferences
files.
You could then select a profile number on the command line and the settings
of that profile (paths, colors, etc) will be used when GNU APL is started.

May I also ask that after reading the main config file, the interpreter also

Doesn't it already read $HOME/.gnu-apl/ (without .d)? Though, I would prefer
this to be put under $HOME/.config/gnu-apl/ and to be configurable through
environment (in addition to command line arguments).
