Extended Dyalog APL features extended domains of existing primitives and quad names and adds a few new ones to Dyalog APL. It was an experimental project that is no longer maintained. Quoting from project README.md:

This project serves as a breeding ground for ideas. While some have been adopted into Dyalog APL proper, it is unlikely that many will be. Furthermore, Dyalog 18.0 gave a different meaning to monadic ≠ than proposed here, leaving Extended Dyalog APL as a deadend.
