Re: [Bug-apl] user defined commands etc.

[Elias Mårtenson]

Shouldn't it be called CONTINUE.apl?

Hi,

Doesn't seem to work:
My lib0 is
/Users/alexeyv/Sources/apl/gapl-workspaces/workspaces/CONTINUE

CONTINUE file is removed.
The SETUP.apl is in the same directory.

On attempt to run APL I get:
================
)LOAD CONTINUE (file /Users/alexeyv/Sources/apl/gapl-workspaces/workspaces/CONTINUE) failed: No such file or directory
================

and the SETUP.apl is not loaded.
