TSE: Language: Computer: APL

[knud van eeden]

Hello,

FYI

How to compile APL programs from within TSE?

1. Information about APL

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)

2. To learn APL

See https://YouTube.com

3. To install Apl

ChatGPT: "how to install GNU APL on Microsoft Windows?"

To install GNU APL on Microsoft Windows, you can follow these steps:

Download the latest version of GNU APL from the official website (https://www.gnu.org/software/apl/)

Extract the downloaded file to a directory on your computer.

Open the extracted directory and double-click on the "apl.exe" file to

launch the GNU APL interpreter.

Alternatively, you can also use the GNU APL for Windows installer

package, which can be downloaded from the official website. This

package will install GNU APL and add it to the Windows PATH, allowing

you to run APL from the command prompt.

You can also use GNU APL from Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) in Windows 10.

4. Create a .bat file COMAPL.BAT (e.g. save it in your TSE path)

g:\cygwin32\bin\apl.exe --noSV -f %3

@ECHO.

@PAUSE

g:\cygwin32\bin\apl.exe --noSV -f %3 > %6

5. Add these TSE compiler options (e.g. run my chanblab.s and merge (or add it manually))

7. Create a file helloworld.apl (case insensitive) in TSE and compile it from TSE (e.g. <CTRL><F9>)

'Hello world'

)OFF

8. That will show

Hello World
