FAQ
Does A+ run under Microsoft® Windows®?
- The core A+ interpreter, no GUI or IPC, has been ported to windows through a
project sponsored by the
British APL Association.
This version has been dubbed
aflat.
What's the easiest way to install XEmacs?
- Look for a binary distribution suitable for your platform. www.xemacs.org.
Why don't things work in Emacs?
- The lisp files are designed to operate with XEmacs, not Emacs.
They are two different programs. We don't know how to make
the A+ XEmacs goodies work with Emacs.
How do I use the APL fonts with my German keyboard?
How can I use the APL fonts on Mac OS X without running X11?
-
Matthias Neeracher has created a filter in expect and written up steps
to use the APL TrueType font in a Terminal window under Mac OS X. It is
left as an exercise for the reader to modify the filter, a+wrap, to invoke
A+ with arguments if desired. Also change a+wrap if expect is not
installed in /sw/bin/expect.
- Place KAPL.TTF in /Library/Fonts
- Download a+wrap, put it in your path and make it executable.
- Open a window in Terminal.app
- In the Shell pane (CMD-I opens a window with the panes), set the encoding to ASCII
- In the Text pane, set the font to KAPL
- In the Emulation pane, turn on Option (alt) key acts as meta key
- Now run a+wrap. The option key enables the APL characters.
Cool, isn't it?
How do I install A+ under Mac OS X (10.3.1) and setup Xemacs?
