This web page contains links to contributions from users of GNU APL, aka. "the GNU APL community". The entries are sorted alphabetically by the last name of the contributor (or her email).
If you would like to contribute a GNU APL library (APL source code) then please consider these Library Guidelines that try to maximize the usefulness of a library. The Library Guidelines also explain the compatibility levels (L1, L2, or L3) used on this page.
You may also want to have a look at our Bits-and-Pieces directory where we collect single file contributions made by the the GNU APL Community.
If you would like to be listed here, or if an entry needs to be updated, then please send an email to bug-apl@gnu.org.
