This is weird. I only get the error when starting GNU APL from within Emacs. When I start it manually, using exactly the same arguments (including the --emacs part) it doesn't fail.
If I manually start APserver and run apl from Emacs it also works correctly. When I *do* get the error, the APserver is actually started (I can see it using ps) but I still get the error. It seems to me as though when GNU APL is started within Emacs, the APserver doesn't have time to initialise before apl attempts to connect to it. That's the only explanation I can come up with right now. Regards, Elias On 1 July 2014 17:57, Juergen Sauermann <juergen.sauerm...@t-online.de> wrote: > Hi ELias, > > sorry, my fault.
