[comp.lang.apl] What happened to I-Beam?

David,

   It went away. :-)

   Actually, it was removed because many of it's features were
replaced by other system functions and/or developers felt that
it was providing access to some system internals that applications
shouldn't really need.

   Actually, it still exists in APL2 in another incarnation.  Its
now called quadIB, but is only available if you are authorized;
ie. if you have SYSDEBUG(128) set on.
