The --with-apl-source-dir= thing is left over from an old version and I forget to take it out of the INSTALL file.  Now it asks apl itself where the source is.  If it's important, I can stick the option back in, but, mostly, it should do things automagically.

Cool. I didn't think to try that.

 

You can set the font size with the -s option:

aplwrap -s 22

for example, will set the size to 22 points.  Default is 12 points, which is kinda big, but with anything much smaller some characters like del-tilde are pretty muddy.   I'll see if I can find a mono-font.

Sadly, font size doesn't seem to be scaled to screen resolution (at least not on Fedora). On my work laptop with an HD screen, 17 points is a reasonable font size.
