No, sorry, I studied APL in the early 80's and used it professionally for ten years straight and have been using it sporadically since then.

Only APL is APL. Notation is as much a part of APL as is it's linear algebra/array orientation. One can't remove the notation and call it APL just like one can't take C and convert it to icons to drag around the screen and still call it C.
