Also, even though the input buffer size is set to 40k (default), when I close and re-open Dyalog and enter Ctrl + Shift + Backspace, it says "There's no previous line"

In the Windows Dyalog IDE when I type )continue or )save some_name, the editor says "Can't save - file could not be created.". Is this because of access permission? Do I need to run Dyalog as adminstrator?

@Razetime That works. Thanks!

Anyone else know how to uninstall the Dyalog IME Layout?

lol~

Hi @Adám, I want to use your keyboard layout on Windows in order to use the ` prefix. How do I uninstall the IME layout which comes with Dyalog? Didn't see them in the Settings. Maybe need to edit the registry?

@user You might be interested in Aaron Hsu's talk on this exact topic.

Maybe that's because we don't need (and haven't been taught) to talk APL with others? We just communicate with written words.

More specifically, the APL symbols.

So do you read APL with or without a sound?

@Adám Exactly, I could have put it more clearly.

@Adám This question reminds me of the short story and film Arrival, (spoiler alert) in which the language of the advanced aliens has totally unrelated systems for reading and writing.

@Adám That's actually not an easy question to answer. I'd say both, the meaning and the sound come at almost the same time.

Haha. As a native Chinese speaker, the beautiful symbols click with me instantly before my old programming habits impose any bias towards them~

I only learned about APL this Wednesday from the CoRecursive podcast, getting so excited that I stayed up all night diving into it.

@Adám Done. Hello APL Orchard!
