APL-library is a collection of APL libraries that provide much of the functionality of other scripting languages.
APL is a functional programming language originally proposed in the 1950s and implemented by IBM in the 1960s. Several APL interpreters are available see http://www.sigapl.org/ These workspaces were developed in GNU APL (http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/apl).
APL uses a suite of operators and functions represented by special characters and many APL vendors use proprietary file formats. Files in the library are utf-8 encoding where APL's special characters are stored with their Unicode value.
To display these files one must have an appropriate font installed. The Free Software Foundation offers one at http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/unifont/
Open file apl-library.info or use emacs.
