APL – A Glimpse of Heaven (2006)
I once got talking with an anesthesiologist who was taking care of a family member. Upon hearing I was a developer, he told me he was an APL programmer who spent most of his computer time developing Bible software. He regaled me with a few APL war stories, about how he could get so much more done with so much less code...<p>I was intrigued, and still am. But one thing I didn't catch -- how do you write all those non-ASCII symbols using a standard OS and text editor? Or does it require special tools?
