With APL code in text files (rather that the traditional workspaces) many source code tools, including editors, can easily be used with APL. This article lists some text editors that are especially well-equipped to deal with APL.
| Name | Platform | Features |
|---|---|---|
| APL Keys | Android | A simple notepad that supports APL characters. |
| Dyalog Editor | Windows | Basically same editor as the one built into the IDE, providing syntax colouring, auto-formatting, language help, comment handling, and tree-view. |
| Emacs | cross-platform | GNU APL mode provides shifting and prefix key input. Dyalog APL Input provides backtick keyboard support. |
| Jupyter Notebook | Windows, Linux, macOS, AIX | Dyalog Jupyter Kernel provides syntax colouring and HTML/SVG rendering. |
| Sublime Text | Windows, Linux, macOS | APL Highlighting package enables syntax highlighting for APL, including Dyalog and APL2 dialects. |
| Typora | Windows, Linux, macOS | Syntax highlighting for code blocks. |
| Vim | cross-platform | VIM APL provides rainbow curly braces with a matching colour for ⍺, ⍵, ∇, and : in dfns, prefix key input, and completion for quad names, keywords, and system commands. Vim Notebook runs an interpreter in the background to evaluating code cells.
|
| Visual Studio Code | Windows, Linux, macOS | APL Language extension provides syntax highlighting and snippets. APL Language Server Client provides tool tips on primitives, prefix (e.g. backtick) completion. |
