Abstract
A scheme for translating APL characters to ASCII text is introduced, and an APL application is developed which reads and writes objects to and from files using the scheme. The system is available freely for several APL dialects; it can be used to port APL applications across different environments. The translation scheme used is proposed as a standard for the ASCII representation of APL characters, and feedback on this scheme is invited.

Typesetting APL with LATEX: the APL front end APL2TEX
In this paper we present an APL publishing system for LATEX which supports typesetting of APL publications and documents in a mixed hardware, multiple vendor APL environment. It requires minimal maintenance and is in the public domain. The system has ...
APL/Z80: An APL interpreter for Z80 microcomputers
APL '79: Proceedings of the international conference on APL: part 1An APL interpreter for Z80 microcomputers is described. APL/Z80 extends APL applications to the realm of low-cost personal computers. For example, APL/Z80 can be configured to run on Z80 systems with video console, 28K byte workspace, dual floppy disks ...
