Edit a specific line in a function? As of now I'm writing my

I'd recommend using Emacs for this. With gnu-apl-mode you're able to type C-c C-f (control-c followed by control-f) and then simply type the name of the function. It will open in a separate buffer and you can edit it and save it directly to the APL runtime using a single keypress.

If your code is in a .apl file, you can simply open it, navigate to the specific function, edit it and press C-c C-c to immediately send it to the running APL.

You may also be interested in an APL function editor written entirely in APL.  See:  https://github.com/blakemcbride/APLEditor
