Hi,
That's strange that it wouldn't exit when you did )OFF. AKT is a really
simple program. Perhaps you can take a look at it.

Hi Blake,
I tried several of the suggested methods, but nothing works for me, except akt.
However akt refuses to exit, after I leave APL with ")OFF".
I still have issues with APL character output. I couldn't get xterm and uxterm
to work. Instead I installed rxvt-unicode.
Interestingly, uxrvt r
I'd suggest taking look at the Emacs mode. It will only provide the ability
to enter APL symbols in Emacs but that's usually acceptable.
It does allow you to avoid messing with X keymaps.

Hi Alexander,
keyboard layouts are a moving target.
When I started GNU APL I used xmodmap which was the most reasonable
way
to do it at that time. At some point in time (after a system
upgrade from Mint 18 to Mint 19)
xmodmap stopped workin

Hi Blake, hi Jin,
I'm afraid this assumes that the X server already has an idea of what an APL
layout would look like, in which case "setxkbmap us,apl" should also work.
Unfortunately this is apparently not the case with my setup. The man page for
xkeyboard-config(7) does not mention an apl lay
Hi Alexander,
I am rather new to APL and had similar issues.
There are various paths to get APL symbols running. I didn't want to
spend a modifier key (CTRL/META/SUPER/...) for apl. So I went the path
to utilize .XCompose, see attached example. So I press f.e. '.'(period)
and than follow with '$'
Below is what I have for FreeBSD. It uses xkeyboard-config.

Hi Alexander,
I know what you mean. I initially went through too much myself getting it
all to work. Eventually, David Lamkins wrote a simple program called AKT.
It does all the translation for you. I now use GNU APL on Linux with zero
special configuration. It just works. I can't speak for B
Dear List,
I feel seriously intellectually challenged. I have compiled gnu apl under
NetBSD (SVN-1271) and all went fine.
But I'm just not up to configuring the X Window System to support APL input and
output. These are the steps I've taken so far:
1. set the locale to en_US. UTF-8 (by setting
