hi there

want to give prolog a try...

what's a good (and free ;-)) prolog implementation for Mac OS X? if found so
far:
gprolog
and
swi-prolog.
any preferences? is there something like a 'standard'?

thanks in advance,

leo

ps: would be a nice add-on when this implementation is available for windows
as well...

swi is wonderful, and has a very good integrated development environment
(IDE), featuring

syntax coloring

jump to definition!

integrated debugger

source analyzing and trivial error detection while typing

source browser



To start it, type

xpce

then the prolog engine will start.Then type

emacs.

(don't forget the dot).

I forgot to mention the integrated help system (you can get help on any
predicate with one click).
