Dyalog APL and RIDE Editor

This repository contains a nix definition to install dyalog APL (https://www.dyalog.com/) and RIDE (https://github.com/Dyalog/ride).

Howto

Run nix-shell in the directory, providing you with both dyalog and ride in your path. Afterwards you can open RIDE and tell it to launch dyalog (available in PATH).

With flakes, you can run nix shell github:markus1189/dyalog-nixos#{dyalog,ride}

Troubleshooting

If you get 404 for dyalog or ride download:

• dyalog: find new version at https://www.dyalog.com/download-zone.htm?p=download
• ride: find new version at https://github.com/Dyalog/ride/releases

and update the corresponding files.

Using the flake

You can run dyalog and RIDE using the nix flake like this:

nix shell github:markus1189/dyalog-nixos
