See the paper that, as far as I know, coined the term APL Idiom -
by Perlis and Rugaber - ``Programming with Idioms in APL'', APL 79
Conference (rochester, ny). pp232-235.  There was also a Yale Technical
Report that contained more examples (I don't remember the number, but if you
write to Robert Block, Department of Computer Science, Yale University, they
can probably help you).
I believe, too, that the FinnAPL communnity also had a large list of idioms.
You might check the last couple years worth of SigAPL publications.
