Hi ports, following Brian's and Ian's suggestions, I updated the port of GNU Apl to account for: - A default configuration file which disables coloring and enables ^D to quit the interpreter; - Adrian Smith's standard APL385 font shipped with the package.
All it takes for the special characters to be correctly displayed is a UTF-8 LC_CTYPE (/etc/gnu-apl.d/keyboard1.txt should display an alien keyboard layout if everything is fine). Tested on -current from latest snapshot: OpenBSD wretch.doom.loc 6.1 GENERIC#194 i386 As soon as the port is integrated in the tree I will communicate my patches back to the author of the program for a better OpenBSD support. Thanks for the feedback.
