Did I read a few weeks ago about an APL font out there?  I'm doing some
of my graduate work with APL and would enjoy this convenience (symbol
font works to some extent, but not enough).  

Along this same line: 

1) since MacWrite only allows one super- or sub-script, what WP/editor 
   package is suggested to handle super-super-scripts?  (This question is
   not necessarily limited to APL.  I've needed sub-sub-scripts before in
   other context)

2) Is there an APL interpreter out there that a poor grad student can afford?  
   I realize APL isn't normally implemented, but a friend has one on his
   TRS-80 Model III, and it is terribly embarassing to ask him if I can use
   his toy when my SE is supposed to be the newest and bestest.

Please excuse me if these questions are rather basic, but I'm not a "power
user" (I hate that term), and I'm just learning APL (I find it wonderfully 
demented, kinda like FORTRAN 4).

Please e-mail replies.  First 10 posters get this free Genuine Diamelle Rolex
Replica for their inconvenience.

Thanks,

Eric Cloninger
