== TryAPL2 ==
Any chance of mentioning this free interpreter?

1. It is about core language features i.e. no GUI builder, no IDE (use del for editing functions- still supported by APLX), no component files etc.

2. It is one expressly designed for learning APL and all the examples work with APL2, APL+Win, Visual APL(allowing for []io default being 0) and Dyalog ([]ml set to 3).

3. It has a workspace called IDIOMS. This is a list of 2nd generation APL idioms i.e goes beyond FinnAPL.

 No:

  * TryAPL2 has problems under certain OS
  * It is not exactly sexy, to put it mildly
  * With NARS2000 there is a much better Open Source interpreter available
