Usage

Use these functions to enable storing Dyalog APL souce files in singe-byte files, even if they contain the characters ⊆ ⍠ ⍤ ⌸ ⌺ ⍸ which are not included in the Dyalog Classic character set (⎕AV).

Store a .dyalog file as a SBCS file:

  1. Start Dyalog APL

  2. Load SBCS.dyalog with ⎕FIX'file://path/SBCS.dyalog'

  3. Enter 'path1/code.dyalog' SBCS.To 'path2/code.sbcs'

Regenerate a .dyalog file from a SBCS file:

  1. Start Dyalog APL

  2. Load SBCS.dyalog with ⎕FIX'file://path/SBCS.dyalog'

  3. Enter 'path1/code.dyalog' SBCS.From 'path2/code.sbcs'

The result of both functions is the number of bytes written.
