I know of three different APL interpreters for the Mac.
APL.68000 (Spencer Organization, 201 666-6011)
PortaAPL (Cambridge Mass)
APL 90
Of the three, APL.68000 is the most mature. It was the first APL
for any machine using a Motorola 68000 chip, and it was de-bugged
before the Mac came along. Watch for a review in March 87 issue of
APL Quote Quad. There is a review of APL 90 in the December issue
of Quote Quad written by Fred Gross.
Fred says that he is willing to distribute APL90 shareware.
