Aplet naming convention

To assist users in keeping track of aplets and associated programs, use the following naming convention when setting up an aplet’s programs:

•Start all program names with an abbreviation of the aplet name. We will use APL in this example.

•Name programs called by menu entries in the VIEWS menu number, after the entry, for example:

–APL.ME1 for the program called by menu option 1

–APL.ME2 for the program called by menu option 2

•Name the program that configures the new VIEWS menu option APL.SV where SV stands for SETVIEWS.

For example, a customized aplet called “Differentiation” might call programs called DIFF.ME1, DIFF.ME2, and DIFF.SV.

Customizing an aplet example

This example aplet is designed to demonstrate the process of configuring an aplet. The new aplet is based on the Function aplet. Note: This aplet is not intended to serve a serious use, merely to illustrate the process.

Save the aplet 1. Open the Function aplet and save it as “EXPERIMENT”. The new aplet appears in the Aplet library.

>$3/(7@￿Select￿

Function 6$9(a

>2.a$/3+$@￿EXPERIMENT

2.Create a program called EXP.ME1 with contents as shown. This program configures the plot ranges, then runs a program that allows you

to configure the angle format.
