Prolog is a computer language. A prologue is a short piece at the start
of a book, play etc.; just as an epilogue is a short piece at the end.
To make it more confusing, Americans spell "prologue" and "epilogue" as
"prolog" and "epilog".

In the 80's, Prologue was a French OS made by Bull. If my memory has no ba=
d sectors, this OS was done for PC like computers, has a little database en=

In France, the names 'Prolog', 'Prologic', 'Prologue' were often used in th=
e early 80's - tr=E8s =E0 la mode, tr=E8s branch=E9.
