Default Font
The default APL font for the site is SImPL medium, SImPL, or APL385 Unicode.
If the APL characters in the articles don't display correctly, you can obtain a copy of the SImPL medium font by downloading the current NARS2000 binary, or the SImPL font from here, or the APL385 Unicode font from here.
If they still don't display correctly, download FireFox.
Extra APL Glyphs
While any Unicode APL font will display all of the standard APL glyphs, NARS2000 uses (or has plans to use) some extra glyphs not found in all Unicode APL fonts such as
| Name | Symbol | Unicode Code Point |
Keystroke | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Section | § | 0x00A7 | Alt-S | Multiset Symmetric Difference |
| Root | √ | 0x221A | Alt-R | Square Root and Nth Root |
| Infinity | ∞ | 0x221E | Alt-f | Infinity |
| Mismatch | ≢ | 0x2262 | Alt-@ | Mismatch |
| Left-shoe-underbar | ⊆ | 0x2286 | Alt-Z | Multiset subset of |
| Right-shoe-underbar | ⊇ | 0x2287 | Alt-X | Multiset superset of |
| Circle-middle-dot | ⊙ | 0x2299 | Alt-? | Null operator |
| Dieresis-downtack | ⍡ | 0x2361 | Alt-N | Convolution operator† |
| Dieresis-del | ⍢ | 0x2362 | Alt-G | Dual operator† |
| Dieresis-star | ⍣ | 0x2363 | Alt-P | Power operator† |
| Dieresis-jot | ⍤ | 0x2364 | Alt-J | Rank operator |
| Dieresis-circle | ⍥ | 0x2365 | Alt-O | Composition operator |
| Down-shoe-stile | ⍦ | 0x2366 | Alt-m | Multiset operator |
| Dieresis-tilde | ⍨ | 0x2368 | Alt-T | Commute operator |
| Zilde | ⍬ | 0x236C | Alt-} | Empty simple numeric vector |
| Stile-tilde | ⍭ | 0x236D | Alt-M | Partition operator† |
† = Not currently implemented.
All of the above glyphs may be found in SImPL medium, all but the Infinity symbol in SImPL, and all but the Null operator in APL385 Unicode.
