Roger - this looks very good - it will be an excellent link to have for the
Turing site.

However, the APL characters at first appeared not as nice as they could be
until I loaded the APL385 font onto my machine (and re-loaded the page).
Now they look fine.

I don't know what the default was before I did this, but I did see poorly
proportioned APL characters at first: jot was not centered in the character
cell, quad was too short, the arrows were too long, and omega was almost
closed at the top.  It looked like perhaps a proportional font of some kind.

Does anyone know what font I was getting at first?  It might be good to warn
people as it was a little confusing to see this ugly version when I first
loaded the page.  The APL385 version looks like it's supposed to - you can
see why we like the look of APL when you see it properly.

Thanks for putting this up.

Regards,

Devon
