Hello Jürgen
I've been working on two projects utl, my utility workspace with better
documentation and better function names and lpr, a workspace to print
directly from apl.
Now I've melted down the interpretor so I've sent three logs. I'm not
sending all the workspace I loaded to create these files. I have updated
the repository and one may clone it:
git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/apl-library/code apl-library-code
When you look at all this can you consider a few issues?
I've defined a function lpr∆USLetter which returns a lexicon that i need
to for the unix pr and lpr commands. Could you write one for the usual
a sized paper sheets? I started down that road and tripped on my
uncontrollable urge to do arithmetic. I couldn't figure how the
priinters work as none of the a sizes seem to easily divided into
points. Here in Pennsylvania where we cling to all sorts of ancient
biases one inch = 72 points and thus 12 point type is equal to one sixth
of an inch and one letter size page has 66 lines per inch.
Could you also look at date.apl? I've defined a lexicon date-delta-US
which in addition to the American month, weekday names defines day_pos,
month_pos, and year_pos for those who feel that days come before months.
Thanks for all your help
Bill
