Thanks, Juergen. The original post referred to the aplwrap command line. The aplwrap code has been changed to pass "-- additional args" to GNU APL.

Thanks for the help. I found it! (I do most of my work on a Sony laptop. That key is next to the function keys on this keyboard.) The ctl-break does interrupt the function. Thanks! Blake On Thu, Aug 14, 2014 at 11:04 PM, Elias Mårtenson wrote: > It's in the top-right corner here: > http:

Now that my eyeballs have gone all squiggly staring at alien characters, I think the latest push has the right keymap and keymap pop-up. The GNU APL Avec.def file doesn't contain a "CENT" reference, so I faked one in aplwrap. So far as I can tell, APL is cool with it as a character; it doesn'

Re: [Bug-apl] A GTK wrapper for GNU APL

That's all correct, I believe. --LX runs a command or expression. To be fair, an expression isn't useful. However, you can write --LX ')copy myws' or --LX ')load myws' to start up APL with a particular workspace. That's useful. If you load a workspace as above, and that workspace ends contains a

Control-C is bound to GTK's copy. That's going to interfere with the key's role as the APL attention signal.

Re: [Bug-apl] A GTK wrapper for GNU APL

Dear Chris, Thanks. That looks a lot better. A couple of things I did notice, however. 1. I noticed that the way your program maps is affected by my kxb settings. Didn't expect that. I completely rebooted my machine to eliminate any mapping issues. 2. Keymap errors: Format ⍕ is mapped to

Re: [Bug-apl] A GTK wrapper for GNU APL

Hmm. It has something to do with your UTF-8 validation in apl_read(). My guess is that read() returns in the middle of a multibyte UTF-8 character, causing the validation to fail. I don't think this is strictly related to the size of the buffer; I tried changing BUFFER_SIZE to 6256 with no improv

Hello Chris, Please consider 1) filtering out whether the 'NumLock' is active or not when you test the key event state is 0 and keyval is GDK_KEY_Return and 2) adding support for a keyval of GDK_KEY_KP_Enter in the same test. Then using the numeric keypad with aplwrap would be a lot more p

Re: [Bug-apl] A GTK wrapper for GNU APL

A couple more minor concerns: 1. The output pane resizes horizontally to the enclosing window size, but not vertically. 2. Last night's scroll-to-end fix is working for me. Now it'd be nice to have the output pane also scroll to the left when waiting for input.

The keymap came from Sharp APL, which I'd been using for years, but it's easy enough to modernise it. I'll tinker that in the morning. The -m switch switched to the SimPL font which was alleged to be monospace, but isn't quite. I replaced it just now with GNU FreeMono, which is better, but s
