Re: Compiling GNUAPL on windows 10 "Ubuntu 10.04 TLS"

[Dr . Jürgen Sauermann]

Hi Christian, thanks for reporting this. I suppose apt install cmake is a little overkill (building GNU APL does not require cmake), but it may have beneficial side-effects of installing other build tools (g++, make, ?). Display of APL characters should not be an issue since we use Unicode. Keyboard should also be feasible; last time I did windows was on XP and there you could change the keyboard mapping with program RegEdit and Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SYSTEM\ CurrentControlSet\ Control\ Keyboard Layout.
