APLX for Linux: Using the Keyboard


Executing APL input lines

When you press Enter in the Session window, APLX will execute the current input line as follows:

You can recall the previous input line using Ctrl-UpArrow. This can be repeated multiple times if required. (Use Ctrl-DownArrow to go in the opposite direction).

Occasionally you may want to add a new line to the session window without executing any APL expression. You can do this using Ctrl-Enter.

Entering APL Symbols

You can enter APL symbols either from the keyboard, or by using the QuickSym window. The APL keyboard layout is described in the section Entering APL Symbols.
