clap clap clap. +1.
This would be just perfect and remove the burden of developing interfaces
specific for libcurl and libsqlite3 and libmysqlclient etc and reinforce the
meaning of open source.
As for the file system it was built separately but interfaced with the
interpreter through the same idea.
I could in fact ask one of my former colleagues with whom I'm still in touch as
he was the maintainer.
Right now i've been using fpc (freepascal) and bash file functions and )host
for my file work
I'd love to see )host (become ]host or ⎕host) and return output
And I think GNU APL is a great gift and Jürgen's herculean effort to bring us
this far is beyond compare.
Well said and kinda unbelievable actually how good it is. I've already quit
using the nearest thing I had SAX (Sharp APL)
