Re: [Bug-apl] defn error with ⍝

[Juergen Sauermann]

Hi, which one? The first ∇ opens function im The second ∇ is at the end of the comment and closes the function and brings you back to immediate execution. The third ∇ is the one below the comment line. It opens a function without a name, which raised the DEFN error, just like:       ∇ DEFN ERROR+       ∇       ^       )MORE Bad function header In earlier versions of GNU APL the ∇ in the comment would belong to the function and be ignored by the ∇-editor. But then there was a request in bug-apl that a ∇ in a line of an open function should not be parsed but instead close the function, which it now does.
