Hi,

*apl -v* should be short.

You can get all the *./configure* options (and if they were changed)
with command line argument *--cfg*:

*apl --cfg

configurable options:
---------------------
    ASSERT_LEVEL_WANTED=1 (default)
    SECURITY_LEVEL_WANTED=0 (default)
    APSERVER_PATH=/tmp/GNU-APL/APserver (default)
    APSERVER_PORT=16366 (default)
    APSERVER_TRANSPORT=0 (default)
...
*
Best Regards,
Jürgen

Hi

another suggestion

from   apl -v    output
config.status:  default ./configure options       might be good to have the 
options used to configure apl output here  like  gcc -v  does

---

in case someone is compiling with libapl.a (static libapl) you now need to add 
-lpng to the compile line

---

there is still this syntax error using  c/libapl and python3/gnu_lib_apl still 
for 1 year+ after using )copy and i still have to use my workaround to to get 
fns

SYNTAX ERROR+
Tokenizer: No token for Unicode U+2207 (∇)
Input was: ∇ws

libapl is no longer being maintained i guess - maybe time to remove it from the 
distribution until the basic problems can be workied on so no one tries to use 
this beta libapl thinking it is as good as apl itself
there was a guy here within the last year who had problems with libapl that 
were never resolved

Hi,

yes it is a snapshot of the current SVN.
No need to do anything if you update via SVN.

Hi,

is this apl-1.9.tar.gz just a tar.gz of the current svn or something labelled 
as a reak 'stable' release?

since i assume you will be doing 'releases' from now on (?) - maybe calling it 
apl-2.0 would have been a better version number to start this new release 
scheme with rather then apl-1.9?

a suggestion - add something to the configure summary to make note what the 
configure was for - libapl or python3/lib_gnu_apl etc
like you are doing with     apl_POSTGRES:
apl_APL:     [yes/no]
apl_LIBAPL:  [yes/no]
apl_PYTHON:  [yes/np]

configure --with-python -> your Makefile.am is 'hardcoded' for 
'-I/usr/include/python3.6m -I/usr/include/python3.8'
i didn't see any information for compiling with different python versions and 
installation locations (for Python.h) that would require using CPPFLAGS for 
different installation locations and newer python versions
configure CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include/python3.10' ......     for my 
particular python3.10 installation

Hi,

I am happy to announce that *GNU APL 1.9* has been released.

GNU APL is a free implementation of the ISO standard 13751 aka.
"Programming Language APL, Extended".

The 1.9 release contains:

* Bug fixes


Have fun!

P.S. Some redundant distribution formats of GNU APL  (RMPs, windows)
are no longer supported. The best way of using GNU APL is to fetch it from
the savannah SVN and GIT archives (seehttps://www.gnu.org/software/apl  ).
These archives are, unlike the less frequent GNU APL releases, always
up-to-date and in sync with the ongoing GNU APL development.
