APL Glyphs Absent

[arcfide]

IBM has a long history with the APL programming language, and it's tragic that their typeface doesn't support modern APL programming glyphs. Here's a range of glyphs to start with:

⌺ ⌶ ⍫ ⍒ ⍋ ⌽ ⍉ ⊖ ⍟ ⍱ ⍲ ⌹ ⋄ ¨ ¯ < ≤ = ≥ > ≠ ∨ ∧ × ÷ ⍷ ⍨ ⍸ ⍥ ⍣ ⍞ ⍬ ⊣
⍵ ∊ ⍴ ~ ↑ ↓ ⍳ ○ * ← → ⊢ ⍤ ⌸ ⌷ ≡ ≢ ⍺ ⌈ ⌊ _ ∇ ∆ ∘ ' ⎕ ⍎ ⍕ ⊆ ⍪ ⍙ ⍠ ⊂ ⊃ ∩ ∪ ⊥ ⊤ | ⍝ ⍀ ⌿

Thank you for the feedback! I was not aware of APL, and it seems to be a very interesting programming language. Which indeed has a historical link to IBM.

I’m happy to put this on the list for future extensions to IBM Plex Mono. Can’t promise anything but we’ve been already discussing adding more support for scientific and mathematical usage.

I’ve quickly searched for more info about which unicode glyphs are necessary for APL, but was not able to find a concise list. If you could complete the list of glyphs you posted, that would be very helpful.

Wikipedia has a page on APL symbols and syntax. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_syntax_and_symbols

From the looks of it many of the symbols share commonality with the Mathematical Operators block and other blocks within Unicode.
