This may be true of APL material in general, but Logos and other APL
source code managers are a special case. They were required for APL
because of its non-standard character set and storage of source code in
an internal binary format. As a result, much APL effort was devoted to
writing custom built source code managers.

They are simply not needed for J, where normal source code managers work
fine.
