There was some discussion about setting the TERM environment variable,
which David Lamkins did for aplwrap, setting it to "dumb"--i.e., aplwrap
doesn't understand terminal controls.  Nothing says it can't be made to
do so, but I've no idea at the moment the scope of work involved.

FWIW, though, I just pushed a patch that at least filters output from
APL so it replaces unprintable characters (⎕av[⎕io+⍳32]) with
spaces--⎕av used to be pretty ugly.  It also catches the ASCII BEL
character (⎕AV[⎕IO+7]) and tries to emit a beep through the right GDK
function, but that doesn't work in my hardware.  YMMV.

This was fixed before but doesn't work anymore.  I use it a lot, and
having it work just like GNU APL without APLWRAP is very useful to me.

Thanks.

    Greetings,

    Some of my error handling code uses the bell (⎕AV[⎕IO+7]), and my
    editor uses some ANSI positioning sequences. I think all I use is
    clear and go to top of screen as follows:

        ∇
    [0]   E∆Clear
    [1]   ⍞←(⎕UCS 27),'[2J'
    [2]   ⍞←(⎕UCS 27),'[1;1H'
        ∇

    Anyway to get that working?

    Thanks.

    Blake
