Per the output of ]keyb you would need to hit the quote key (left of
enter) on a US keyboard + whatever modifier you use to produce APL
symbold.

Not sure if it's a primitive function or an operator. I see it briefly
mentioned as "left tack" p. 474 in Appendix A of the APL2 Language
Reference.

That manual lists those _characters_ but does not associate any operation to it.  I think it is not an IBM APL 2 operator.
