Thanks. I had it the other way around with no space because that was dead simple to parse with strtoul() returning the nc and endptr left pointing at the name, but your way is still easy enough to parse.

Thank you. I've added it, but with a small change.

That makes it possible for me to get all the non-system functions and variables in one transaction and still differentiate between functions and variables. I've attached a proposed patch.

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
