demo has an error message

Also, not very familar with apl-vim, running the setup but nothing seems to work. Should it be `i will give you the character etc. Guess not your issue. May have to do copy and paste :-(

; trying to use github example as demo as demo does not work

@kwccoin

the vim-apl seems not active

if you make the file extension of the file .apl then try.

also you can run :set filetype=apl

the plugin does not know that you want to type apl characters into a .lisp file

[kwccoin]

as the vim plug in need to use .lisp (so one can do say ,e for expression and ,b for whole "buffer', I have to use .lisp. Still, i try the filetype and ignore the need to use slimv just open a .apl, still no luck.

Is there any way to install the vim package directly so that I know it is installed (instead of via the other package). I only use one vim plug in and this is my second one.

Any way really not your issue. And I am trying yours by copy and past.

BTW, why the demo not working. I saw it running a bit and then have that message

; The variable VEX::OUTPUT is unbound.
; console: 2.72 7.39 20.1  2.71828 7.38906 20.0855The variable VEX::OUTPUT is unbound.

Could you post an example of code that produces the VEX::OUTPUT is unbound message when you run it? I tried running (april (demo)) within both the april and cl-user packages and I found that it works fine for the current version of April. Are you using the latest version from this repo or the Quicklisp version?
