Sorry. I forgot to mention that the rendering problem of #2 is visible when
looking at the info node in Emacs. It is probably a bug somewhere in Emacs.

Hi David,
thanks, fixed in SVN 403.
For 2) I don't know. Looks OK in my xterm when doing 'info apl'. Wrong

Hi David,
it is not mentioned because GNU APL accepts ⍝! as a library marker (and
makes such libraries
readable by other APL interpreters because ⍝! is just an ordinary APL
comment) but such files

So this is more a library convention and mentioned
To be clear w.r.t. issue #2: It's the /usr/local/share/info/dir file that

I'm not sure where it'd best be noted, but the info file makes no mention
of alternatively starting a .apl file with the lamp-bang sequence.

1) Sometimes a make complains that aclocal- is missing. It is in
fact present, but a different version. It's possible to clear this warning
by doing a make distclean followed by ./configure and make. I'm not sure
what triggers this; I suspect that the `missing` script doesn't get rebuilt

Would it be possible to pass the ravel of each token? Currently, a sequence
of single-character tokens get collapsed into a single token.

1) In section 1.3, in the description of the `--` option, there's an

2) In section 2.1.3, Example 1 the 37 (for some reason that I don't
understand) displays as a header (large and bold). I've seen this on all of
my installations.

I agree in part. My opinion is that all of these problems would be solvable
if immediate lambdas required an explicit function call to be evaluated.
I.e. {⍵} 1 should not evaluate to 1, but rather the function itself and the
number one. Then, having a separate symbol to force evaluation.
Sadly, th
Hi,
that makes me think that APserver is listening on a different socket
type than the one apl is using.
Therefore, netstat -l -p to see where APserver listens and apl -l 37 to
see where apl tries to connect.

I don't think so. The APserver is definitely started. Also, if I start
another apl it's able to connect to the previous one.
My theory is the same as before, I think that apl attempts to connect to
APserver before it's ready to accept connections.
Also, given the fact that apl never connects to A
Hi Elias,
looks like either no APserver is running or the APserver listens on
another socket.
Check with netstat -l -p. That should show a line like:

Hi,
I have put the power operator onto my long-term TODO list (aka
README-4-compliance), SVN 402.
BTW the somewhat unexpected behavior of your niladic functions comes
from the IMHO broken syntax
of the rank operator (which allows values where unaware people would
expect functions). Before th
Hmm, so having a right-hand nildaic function passed to an operator simply
doesn't work. Oh well, makes sense once you think about it. :-)
This was all part of experimentation I was playing around with while
thinking about the power operator. Have you given that one any thought yet?
Regards,
Elias
Hi Elias,
this is because your lambdas are niladic. The right lambda is called
before SEL,
while the left lambda is called by SEL. From SEL's perspective, 'then';
is a function
while 'else' is a value.
