Lee,
I don't have time to answer your specific question (and I am not a
prolog user), but should point out that if your To: line emailed to
pop-forum has anything outside the angle brackets, like this:
To: "pop-forum@cs.bham.ac.uk" <pop-forum@cs.bham.ac.uk>
it will not get through the mail-> news gateway. That's why a
lot of Steve's messages had to be forwarded by me to comp.lang.pop
I hope this will be fixed eventually.
Regarding your request for help:
If you have started up poplog prolog, you may find these
help files give you useful tips:
HELP PROLOG_LANGUAGE
Predicates and library package for switching between Prolog and
POP-11.
shows how to switch to pop-11, define a pop-11 procedure, switch back
to prolog, and call the pop-11 procedure from prolog.
HELP MIXED_LANGUAGES
Overview of methods of interfacing Prolog and other languages.
HELP PLOGTOPOP
How to call POP-11 from Prolog.
In case you have not found this, the following command in VED, when
you are running prolog
ENTER help plogindex
Should give you a complete list of over 200 available help files for
poplog prolog. It's advisable to try to learn your way around them.
You can give the command to get a prolog help file as follows when
running ved from pop-11, or lisp, or pml:
ENTER prolog help plogindex
If the examples in the help files don't work in on a PC running windows,
I can only suggest installing linux. Sorry. There may be a problem with
search lists.
As the pcwin poplog documentation says: it was developed to run on NT
(presumably to support clementine), and some things will not work on
windows95/98. I guess nobody knows which things will and which will not.
