Looking for public domain (unlikely) or commercial implementations of APL2 for
the abovementioned machines. Nested arrays are less important to me, but I
would like to have the capability of selective access (Bracket operator),
user-defined operators, and operators with user-defined functional arguments.
I don't insist on APL -- a similar language with the ``good'' characteristics
will also do. Anybody knows where I can find *technical* description of the
language Q'Nial?
If nothing is available, I'd settle for a complete and reasonably efficient
implementation of APL, preferably with the source. Are there any products
available from STSC, Sharp, CCA, others? Please mail your comments directly
to me. If there are enough responses, I'll summarize to these news groups.
