MUHRTH@tubvm.cs.tu-berlin.de (Thomas Muhr) (02/26/91)
The people at DigiTalk must have been in quite a hurry
to deliver their new product (which I appreciate very much!),
that they have really forgotten one of the more interesting
capabilities of ST/V: The Prolog/V interpreter which (even if not
the most powerful engine) allowed experimentation with linking
object oriented and logical programming and the concept of a
"society of experts": different specialized rule modules able
to (really) consult each other. I haven't tried porting the
engine to ST V/Win yet. Maybe some of you have already done so
or have come across severe problems (which might have been the real
reason not to supply the Prolog code). So, if anyone has the ported
code, I (and others I suppose) would be very glad to receive it.
Thank you very much in advance -
Thomas
