Hi there,
launching Dialog APL 18 Beta I catch this message:

"SALT initialization failed: C:\Users\Mario\Documents\Dyalog APL 18.0 Unicode Files\UserCommand20.cache: Unable to create file"

Where can I change the directory name highlighted in bold?

Thanks.

Hi Mario,

Close APL, set the environment variable UCMDCACHEFILE to whichever location and file name you would rather use, then start APL again.

If anyone wants more details about this, it is documented in the User Commands User Guide on pages 3 to 5.

This PDF file can also be found in the help subdirectory of your Dyalog Install.
