Hopped on Royal Oak the other day and to my surprise there's an APL for Z-80s using CP/M-80. Has anybody played with it ? You really need an APL terminal to use it, shifting in and out to the APL character set. Has anybody ROMed or softwared an APL terminal for an Apple //e, Xerox 820, or NEC 8500 ? I have an APL terminal program for my Commodore-64 but that's only 40 columns (I snarfed it from CompuServe). I don't have a IBM-PC or clone yet but if APL things can be had for that beast I'd be interested in that too. I know you can buy APLs for the Atari 520/1040, Amiga, Mac, and PCs... but I'm just interested in playing terminal to use the Z-80 one.
