It is already time for us to start making detailed plans for this years' Dyalog Conference, which will be held in Princeton NJ (the same venue as Dyalog'07),...
One interesting property of the passage from lowercase to uppercase in full Unicode is that, as far as I know, in general it is not reversible and also the...
... Ok Stefano, I'm guessing some languages ignore diacriticals in uppercase and that some ligatures and diphthongs are only available in one case or the...
... I believe so. Also my understanding is that there are exceptions like German's ß (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ß) that becomes "SS" when uppercased... ...
... like German's ß (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ß) that becomes "SS" when uppercased... Heaven forbid! There is no such character in use in German, and...
The Notepad default is for when you are in DOS/Winfows. You can bring the Spice class into the ws (using Load) and edit it normally. SALT will take over when...
Hi, I am here lurking since quite a while trying to read various posts. Suppose I have a Digital VT220 Terminal and an APL interpreter of "not very well known...
I still have an original copy of RTAPL for the PDP 11 on an 8" floppy. There we used an LA120? with a special character chip. Didn't stick around long enough...
Just in case anyone is interested in flogging dead horses I tried an experiment. Repeating the expression below until I got a domain error incrementing the...
Jim, when you are in MS Disk Explorer (whether started by APL or not) you ARE in DOS/Windows and anything you do there happens there (what happens in DOS stays...
Hi! I have two screens (at 1600 x 1200 pixels). When reading the DevCaps I get 1600 x 1200 pixels. Is there any way to get the total screen area? In this case...
Outside Dyalog, will Notepad properly edit a “xxxxxx.dyalog” script file? Given this environment: 1) Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 2) Default input...
The Find dialog box probably uses the windows standard font which doesn't include glyphs for APL characters. Either change your windows edit field font to one...
Oh dear .. the "infamous" Optimus keyboard .. A bit too expensive .. Now I'd rather spend 50 .. 80 quids on a REAL "vintage" APL KB rather than 855 pounds on...
... and my favourite, the stealth keyboard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9f0VFJBSug ... From: Richard Procter To: dyalogusers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday,...
... When I last asked about a year ago, the IBM key caps were still available, but the price was still too high ! I suggested to Nancy Wheeler (IBM APL2 team),...
... Sometimes I feel like doing that. Your approach is speedier & pretty nice (and if you ever learned to use parens with multiple assignment..), but if: a)...
Are there any naming standards/rules for entities in []se? ... ⍝ Namespace containing :Includable utility functions ... Anyone familiar with this namespace? ...
Hi Jim, That particular one is my fault, it is part of "Spice". If you disable Spice (Options|Configure|SALT) it will not get loaded when APL starts. We're...
In the past I put some of my own stuff into ⎕SE, but got a bit tired of having to rebuild as new session files arrived from Dyalog (patience is not one of my...
My way of using []se is that when Dyalog / application starts, it copies automatically general kind of utility stuff (ROWFIND, OVER, UPPERCASE, .. + other...
That's more or less what I do, except that I don't put anything of my own into ⎕SE. And the utilities come in from scripts (with some hokey-pokey stuff to...
... I don't understand this. []SE stands for the session. I am keeping utilities inside this, but only those supporting the development process. "Find" or...
I'd like to jump and in second that. Could be that this would be addressed by the new UCMD-architecture, but there needs to be an easier way to plug in...
... part of the application. In my approach only application specific code is saved in workspace, all general toolset kind of stuff (there are more than ten...
