APL*PLUS was an extension of APL\360, and as such was written in [[wikipedia:IBM_Basic_Assembly_Language_and_successors|IBM\360 assembler]]. STSC reimplemented the language in [[wikipedia:C (programming language)|C]] for the [[wikipedia:IBM PC|IBM PC]], and released it as APL*PLUS/PC in 1982.

In 1992, STSC changed name to Manugistics, and in 1995, APL*PLUS was sold off to LEX2000 Financial Reporting Software, which then created a subsidiary named APL2000. The product was re-launched as APL+, with specific names APL+Win and APL+Unx for [[wikipedia:Microsoft Windows|Microsoft Windows]] and [[wikipedia:UNIX|UNIX]], respectively. When UNIX support was abandoned, [[APL+Win]] became the sole product. | In 1992, STSC changed name to Manugistics, and in 1995, APL*PLUS was sold off to LEX2000 Financial Reporting Software, which then created a subsidiary named APL2000.
