Path: utzoo!attcan!utgpu!watmath!water!ljdickey From: ljdickey@water.waterloo.edu (Lee Dickey) Newsgroups: comp.lang.apl Subject: APL Survey 89, summary Message-ID: <2096@water.waterloo.edu> Date: 12 Feb 89 15:23:00 GMT Reply-To: ljdickey@water.waterloo.edu (Lee Dickey) Organization: U. of Waterloo, Ontario Lines: 339 Here are the results of "APL Survey 89". The questions asked were: (a) Which APL interpreter do you use? (h) On what Hardware? (o) What Operating system? (w) Have you used any version of the WorkSpace Interchange Standard? ( WSIS 0, WSIS 1 ) I have extracted the answers to each response and include here the names and at least one e-mail address that (I think) reaches that person from my site. I learned of APL-80 by Ramware for TRS 80. I am told that the phone is now disconnected. I wonder, who was the APLer who lived in Milford, NH?
