                            1992-05-12

The Toronto Toolkit is a collection of useful ISO Standard APL utility 
functions collected by the Toronto Chapter of ACM SIGAPL, and provided 
without charge as a service to the computing community.

The functions conform to the 1984 ISO (International Standards Organization) 
APL Standard N8485.                   

The Toronto Chapter of ACM SIGAPL is a group of people interested in
APL, based in Toronto, Canada.  

                         Using the Toolkit

The Toolkit consists of APL workspaces for SHARP APL, APL*PLUS, 
IBM APL2, and DYALOG APL systems, as well as an ISO Workspace Interchange
format file.
