Are there any APL implementations which preserve the function source
text as entered by the programmer, instead of just throwing all
non-relevant white space away?  The way APL functions are reproduced in
the literature seems to indicate that this is a non-issue.  Nevertheless
I find this "feature" to be *very* annoying - and a severe hindrance for
newcomers to APL who often complain about the "look and feel" of APL code
anyway.
