ABSTRACT

While Japan is amongst the first countries to use APL back in the early 1970's and enjoyed at one time as high as 40% of IBM main-frame customers using APL, the lack of Japanese language support of APL in popular computing environments today such as UNIX/AIX, OS/2 and Windows seems to be driving APL out of the scene.This paper tries to bring up this subject more officially than I have done in the past for more public discussion not only for Japan, but also for those countries, where the characters required by national languages cannot be contained in the ASCII table of 256 codes.
