Hi Peter,
thanks for the proposal. The logging facilities are already
described in the *GNU-APL-Designers-Guide.html* and
I have added a note concerning *-l 37*. Also:
*apl --help**
*
mentions it, although it could be missed there due to the many
command line options.
*SVN 1705*.
Best Regards,
Jürgen

Hi Jürgenl:
I was trying out how to startup APL using command line parameters. My
first attempt worked:
Last login: Sun Jun 4 13:43:24 on ttys000
Gandalf:~ pteeson$ apl -l 37
…..
But I had to know that LID_startup was enum 37.
(UserPreferences::parse_argv_0(..) {..if(!strcmp(argv[a], "-l") &&
atoi(argv[a+1]) == LID_startup)
That seems to imply I had already built apl, launched it, and typed
]LOG to find the LID_startup enum.
So I’m wondering if we could maybe add something to the READMEs?
Perhaps similar to the README-7? Listing the LOG table?
Maybe indicating which can be used on the command line?
Just a thought…
respect…
Peter
