Yes. A long time ago (in a galaxay far, far away), I received a brochure from a company called Vangard Systems. It described a version of APL for the Apple. I was very excited until I saw the price ($300+, if memory serves). It did look like a very good implementation, tho. It had all the APL stuff you'd expect, plus Apple-specific extensions, a graphics interface, a new character generator chip, etc. If you do secure a version of APL for the Apple, I'd be interested in hearing your opinions of it. Thanks. hope this helps, Rich Raffals
