Re: [Bug-apl] alias for built-in functions

[Juergen Sauermann]

Hi Alexey, it works on my machine:       DISPLAY←{8⎕CR ⍵}       ⎕CR 'DISPLAY' λ←DISPLAY ⍵ λ←8⎕CR ⍵       DISPLAY 1 2 3 ┌→────┐ │1 2 3│ └─────┘ You must be careful that your ⍵ is the proper one:       ⎕UCS '⍵'   ⍝ Omega in GNU APL 9077 There could be characters that look like ⍵ but are not.. /// Jürgen On 09/04/2015 08:16 PM, Alexey Veretennikov wrote: Hi, I want to make an alias for the display function, like in Dyalog APL DISPLAY, but by some reason can't.
