We aim to make as many APLTree sub-projects as possible available for all platforms Dyalog is officially supporting except AIX and the PI. This was a major project but it was eased by the fact that Dyalog introduced system functions into version 15.0 that made the job much easier.

However, since we also tried to make sure that every APLTree project runs at least with the oldest supported version of Dyalog (14.0 at the time of writing) we had a dilemma here: we need 15.0 for a platform independent strategy.

Therefore it was decided to make a split: what was the current version of any APLTree project when we started to make the APLTree platform independent is available from http://download.aplwiki.com/Prior15.0. Naturally these versions are no longer actively supported, although we will continue to fix serious bugs for quite a while.

On http://download.aplwiki.com we will provide only versions of the APLTree project that are either truly platform independent or are bound to a particular platform by definition; examples are `WinSys` and `ShowChmHelp`.

  • APLTree is an Open Source project with an extremely relaxed license - see AplTreeLicensing for details.

  • Sub-projects of APLTree should follow certain suggestions - see AplTreeSuggestions for details.
