Re: libapl with c and python

[Dr . Jürgen Sauermann]

    Hi,
      
      not sure, really.
      
      I suppose there may be a difference between .apl workspaces and
      .xml workspaces being )COPYd.
      
      )LOAD and )COPY of .apl files works by feeding them line by line
      from a file into the interpreter.
      In the libapl case the frontend (python or erlang) has to perform
      this function if needed.
    
    )LOAD and )COPY of .xml files loads a
        snapshot of the workspace into the interpreter. This
        works directly with the .xml files in one go as opposed to line
        by line. Probably better with
        libapl.
        
        Best Regards,
        Jürgen
