- On the Atari-ST, pl.ttp can be installed anywhere.
The resource folder pl should be below the root
directory of a disk and is searched for in the order
cde...ab (e.i. hard disk first, followed by floppy)
- Atari-ST: `pl.rc' as files cannot be named `.plrc'
- One could choose words, defining words as a sequence of
alpha-numeric characters and the word separators as
anything else, but one could also choose Prolog
arguments
- This implies the system can run out of local stack in debug
mode, while no problems arise when running in non-debug mode.
- The idea comes from BIM_Prolog. The options supported by
this predicate are not compatible with those for
BIM_Prolog however.
- This implementation is based on GNU's unexec() function,
creating a new executable from the running process. It
is selected using the O_STORE_PROGRAM option in the
machine-description file.
- This implementation is selected by the O_SAVE option in
the machine-description file.
- These are NOT the defaults compiled into an intermediate
code file created with pl -c ...
- I plan to raise all these limits to 65536, the maximum
addressable range by the 16 bits virtual machine codes.
