Re: [Bug-apl] Segmentation fault with Emacs mode

I don't know how to get the vid printed on stderr since I only get the error running through Emacs. If someone can give me a way of simulating this error without emacs, I'd be glad to do that. Thanks. Blake On Tue, Apr 29, 2014 at 8:45 AM, Juergen Sauermann < juergen.sauerm...@t-online.de> wr

[Bug-apl] Proposal wrt experimental code

2014-04-29 Thread Peter Teeson
Hi Jürgen: This is a proposal for a mechanism to allow experimental code but still distribute it without becoming part of the "officially supported" code base. My reasons for proposing this have been stated previously but to recap: "Experimental code too often becomes the de facto released code

Re: [Bug-apl] Request: quad-COPY (needed to implement package manager)

Hi David, I am glad that you found a workaround. ⎕CP would have been rather tricky because )COPY supports .xml and .apl files. The .xml files can be decoded directly, but the .apl files involve the APL interpreter to execute them (including APL commands) which is somewhat difficult to do (and

Hi, I managed to reproduce this once with )LOAD Devices (and without emacs), but after turning Archive related logging on and off again I did not happen again. I have added some more printout so that I can see which value ID is causing this (SVN 237). If it happens again, please send me the .

Re: [Bug-apl] APL and text editors- some initial thoughts
