I have a course involving an overview of several languages
including APL. I have installed the APL interpreter distributed
in the 4.1Bsd Unix source on my 4.2 Vax.
My Problem:
The documentation for the distribution is not very
informative. I am experiencing difficulty just getting
started with APL, as I don't know what a valid program
for the 4.1Bsd interpreter looks like.
Question1:
Does someone out there have a *simple* program, using
most of the usual syntax of the 4.1 interpreter? If so,
could you send me a copy?
Question2:
Could someone point me towards more complete documentation?
Question3:
I heard somewhere along the line, that there was a driver
for the gigi terminal, that would display the APL character set,
and work with the APL interpreter; is this true? I seem to
remember this floating around on the net; is it possible to
obtain it? How? Where?
Thank you for your time,
Al
