Re: [Bug-apl] Online interpreter

Hi,

wouldn't the tablet approach be to draw the APL symbol with your finger on the screen :-?

With the exception of the lack of popup keyboard, it's already so much better than tryapl it's not even funny. :-)

Great work!

In related news, I've been thinking about how to best handle APL input on Android. I think this project screams for an Android port just about now.

The rest of the work in getting the Android version running (porting the APL interpreter itself) should be fairly trivial. The difficulty is getting the input right, and I'm not really a fantastic mobile designer. Anyone on this list who has had any thoughts around this?

Regards,

Elias

Hi Thomas,

cool, even colors are working!

Some commands don't, for example ]KEYBOARD which could be useful
for users without proper APL keyboard setup.

Thank you for this.

Also, using the arrow keys to select from the command history would be neat.

Work in progress...

I integrated the _javascript_ code to http://terminal.jcubic.pl/
Full terminal emulation with readline-like arrow up/down history
I added the exciting free Source Code Pro fonts by Adobe: https://blogs.adobe.com/typblography/2012/09/source-code-pro.html
Removed the initial banner: what is good for a console was a little too "heavy" for a web app; no more main() function;
now GNU APL is used as a mere library from the _javascript_ wrappers.

Virtual keyboard to come again (soon). If you want to test it; you have to copy/paste your APL characters.

Best regards,
