[Bug-apl] 'SYNTAX ERROR+ Tokenizer: No token for Unicode U+00A0 ( )'

[Rowan Cannaday]

Greetings y'all,

I wanted to ask a far more interesting question, but unfortunately I'm having APL keyboard issues.

I frequently get the following error when using gnu-apl on OSX. I have never had this problem on linux, using the APL x11 kbd.

> SYNTAX ERROR+ Tokenizer: No token for Unicode U+00A0 ( )

I regularly get 'DEFN ERROR+', for normal function definitions.

I regularly get 'SYNTAX ERROR++' for normal variable assignments.

All these issues are fixed when I enter the same code from linux/x11.

I am using the dyalog keyboard file from here:
https://www.dyalog.com/apl-font-keyboard.htm

I suspect it has more to do with the keyboard file and how it chooses to do unicode input, than the gnu-apl interpreter.

Does anybody have a link to an OSX compatible APL keyboard they use? Or ran into the same issue that they fixed somehow?
