Hi Blake,
good. The double ^C is on purpose to avoid accidentally hitting ^C.
Its actually two ^C within 500 ms.

Dear Juergen,
It prints immediately. Great!!!
Last thing, if I could just ^C out of the middle of printing ⍳100000
but I could ^C^C out!
(I understand this may be a readline issue that'll have to wait.)
Thanks!

Hi Blake,
I did some rework of the print functions for APL values.
Some were not suited for values with many columns.
That should work better now. SVN 413.

Hi Blake,
unfortunately the rules for APL output are such that you
cannot "print as you go".
Try ⍳100000
That should be able to print as you go - IBM APL does. Right now
there is a significant delay - that I presume is unnecessarily
using a significant amount of memory to hold the formatted string.
Of course, you still can't ^C out of that either - but that's a
different matter.
I understand that in many situations you must format the whole
thing before you can can see how it lays out. But that is not
true in cases where it clearly doesn't fit (like ⍳100000) and
many, many cases where it is too large to have a reasonable
format. Those are the cases when print-as-you-go can be done and
would be without delay, and save significant memory - and
hopefully easier to interrupt.
Thanks.
Blake
