[comp.lang.apl] I-APL

ljdickey@water.waterloo.edu (Lee Dickey) (10/27/87)

A copy of the Beta release of I-APL crossed my desk today.
It is a free APL for PC and Clones.  A colleague of mine has
taken it for evaluation.

More information will be posted when it becomes available.

If you want more information now, write to

The development of I-APL has been made possible by contributions of
hundreds of individuals and many organizations.  For instance, SIGAPL,
the Special Interest Group for APL of the Association for Computing
Machinery [ Are you a member? :-) ], the British APL Association, the
German APL Club, have all contributed.

The objective is to create an APL that will run on small machines 
already in place in schools.  This includes some of the smallest
micros around, but also will include PCs.

On some of these systems, workspace size will be limited and it is
not lightning fast, but the interpreter is a full ISO Standard
implementation.

If you think this is a good idea, you might write to Ed and include
a [tax deductible] contribution made payable to "I-APL, Incorporated".
