Installation

EITHER:

   Edit `Makefile'. Change BINDIR and comment out ARCH_AND_OS,
   for example:

   BINDIR = /usr/local/bin
   ARCH_AND_OS = sparc.sunos

   then TYPE:

      make install

OR:

  Copy or symbolically link bin/bp<ARCH>.<OS>  to `bp'
  somewhere in your path, then type `bp'.

Normally the appropriate `wam' (a C-ified self contained executable) or (for some old architectures) typing `ru wam.bp' (possibly a small `bp' shell-script) are all you need to have BinProlog 3.30 running. For DOS/Windows 386/486 PCs you will have to edit bp.bat with your path information and then type bp. Something like `go32 ru.386 wam.bp' directly in the distribution directory should also work.

To start BinProlog use

$ bp <command-line options> <wam-bytecode-file>

or simply

$ bp

Sizes of the blackboard, heap, stack, trail and code areas can be passed as command line parameters etc, in Kbytes:

usage:
[-h heap] [-s stack] [-t trail] [-c code] [-b bboard] [-a 2âtoms] [-d 2ĥashtable entries] [-i size of IO-buffer] [-q quietness] wamfile (default: wam.bp).
