Thanks @akamayu! I've incorporated your suggestions :)

A new script, dyalogscript, was added in version 18.2, so people can execute APL files in shell. Here is a patch on PKGBUILD so it installs the script.

Maybe the program should be install to /opt/... as stated in Dyalog's guide 1, so we won't have to change those hardcoded paths in the future?

Only works after installing ncurses5-compat-libs. Please update dependency.

Fails to run due to missing dependency: ncurses5-compat-libs

Whoops, I missed the email notifying me about the latest version. Updated now, thanks :)
