Re: [Bug-apl] Akt missing character

[Blake McBride]

Thanks, David.

I used Gnu APL ]keyb command to verify.  I see that del-underscore is in two places.  My guess is that akt is only used with GNU APL.  I propose that either GNU APL be changed to only have one key with del-underscore (and the corresponding ]keyb corrected), or akt be allowed the anomaly to remain in sync with GNU APL.  

Additionally, if there is a change in GNU APL, all of the key binding I and others have supplied will have to be changed, and my custom made keyboard would have to be changed.

Although in a perfect world I think it best not to have the same character in two places, I think making akt remain in sync with GNU APL is best - either way.

Thanks.

Thanks for the note, Blake.

akt 1.4 is based upon the layout in GNU APL's file:
  support-files/Dyalog-Keyboard/keyboard1.txt

akt adds GNU APL symbols and currency symbols to the Dyalog layout noted above. The del-underscore character is on Shift-Alt-period.

If you like the Shift-Alt-H binding, you should probably revert to an older akt.
