I have been using APL+WIN for my class, and I like to run my Linux box lately (its definately more fun). But APL+WIN won't recognize the same keystrokes when I use it through WINE. I was thinking anyone reading this will know APL and will know if there is a .sh file that allows you to install the WIN version on a Linux box, kinda like the .sh file included in the UT2K3 game, from what I understand.

Thanks to anyone with helpful knowledge.

What's APL? There's probably an open source equivelant around.

There are open source equivalents, but they suck (as far as I am concerned). APL is a simple but versatile programming language, and APL stands for A Programming Language. Its used to break crytography ciphers (or at least that what I use it for). 8 lines and I can transform 20-digit primes and a couple thousand characters of ciphertext into English.
