Below is what I have for FreeBSD. It uses xkeyboard-config.
$ cat /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/kbd-layout-dvp-apl.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "KeyboardDefaults"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "us,apl"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbVariant" "dvp,dyalog"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:shifts_toggle,caps:hyper"
EndSection
You need to remove 'dvp' (for Dvorak dvp) if you don't know what it is.
The 'grp:shifts_toggle' sets to toggle the input from us to apl by pressing both shift keys.
You may remove ',caps:hyper' if you don't want the caps lock as the hyper modifier.

Dear List,
I feel seriously intellectually challenged. I have compiled gnu apl under NetBSD (SVN-1271) and all went fine.
But I'm just not up to configuring the X Window System to support APL input and output. These are the steps I've taken so far:
1. set the locale to en_US. UTF-8 (by setting LC_ALL=en_US. UTF-8).
2. Compile the file trunk/
support-files/old-Keyboard/apl.xkm resulting in a file apl.xkb in the current directory.
3. Try to configure the keyboard. A sample session looks like: (see attached typescript).
4. I have not even attempted to add the APL fonts to a font directory. More fun.
Is there any guide on doing this? ELI5, preferably in words of one syllable or less.
Or should I give up on APL altogether?
With frustrated salutations,
