Run dyalog APL and RIDE on nixos

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).

Using the overlay

You can also use the overlay.nix file to add dyalog and ride to your available packages. See https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#chap-overlays for information on how to include it.
