[net.lang.prolog] Driving Terminals from Prolog

From:  Joe Zachary <Zachary@MIT-XX>

I would like to drive a terminal from within an interactive
Prolog program running under TOPS-20.  Unfortunately, Prolog
frustrates my attempts by translating all escape characters
into printable dollar signs before they reach the terminal.
I even tried a gross hack suggested by the on-line manual
involving negative numbers, but that only works under
TOPS-10. Does anyone know a solution?

Thank you!
