rcstfdb@eutrc3.urc.tue.nl (Frank WGM de Bruyn) (10/07/89)
In the comp.lang.prolog newsgroup there has been a question regarding
the availability of implementations of the programming language PROLOG
on Macintoshes.
Cross posting:
Since nobody has answered the query regarding Mac-based PROLOGs I
went through my files.
Result: more than 10 PROLOGs ranging from US$79 to beyond US$500 for
the most professional products
Corrections, and supplements are most welcome,
please mail to prolog@urc.tue.nl ,or post to this newsgroup.
I'll revise document, and repost in a couple of weeks.
Also welcome:
(Email)votes for most favourite product, and products disliked
Again I'll summarize in a couple of weeks, provided there are
sufficient respondents.
