I'll take a look at that. Is your protocol documented somewhere? Or is
it implicit in gnu-apl-mode/native?

Hello Chris,
I've been following the discussions about the GTK wrapper, and while
I'm not using it myself (since I work on the Emacs integration) I
realise that there are plenty of (potential) overlaps between our
projects.
In particular, I want to let you know about the Emacs mode backchannel
protocol that the mode uses for directly communicating with the GNU
APL interpreter. When started, if gives you a simple text-based
protocol through which you can do things such as defining functions or
creating listeners that send you a message whenever a variable is
changed (this is used by the realtime variable watcher).
It would be neat if you were to consider implementing some of the
feature I added to the Emacs mode, and if you do it would be useful if
you used the same protocol as I am using.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Regards,
Elias
