I'm told that Watcom has a $50 apl environment... has anyone used it? Also, I've seen ads for STSC's Pocket*Apl for $95. It doesn't have to be full apl, or exceptionally fast, as long as its a useful subset for learning, and compatible with the standard apl texts... The catch is, it has to be under $100, and not require any extra hardware (ie 8087, extra RAM, or character generator). If anyone's interested, I'll post a summary. Thanks in advance... mark
