-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Acquiring the package:
Download the archive files and extract using SparkPlug 2 (see the "tools_help"
file in arch/riscos/tools for further info).
If you are having trouble downloading large files and transferring them
by 720k floppy then you may be able to split them up into smaller pieces
and recombine them using SPLIT (b131). Executables are available for
Acorn, PC, Sun and VAX.
Description:
This is a very simple port of the CLIPS program, which is downloadable
from various sites on the internet. Other versions are available for
Windows, DOS and Unix.
CLIPS is a computer language designed for writing applications called
expert systems. An expert system is a program which is specifically intended
to model human expertise or knowledge. In contrast, common programs such as
payroll programs, word processors, spreadsheets, computer games, and so
forth, are not intended to embody human expertise or knowledge.
Included is both the main application, the standard examples and a somewhat
nasty example of my own. I give no comment about the quality of the code in
my example, or to its factual accuracy :-)
I have not included the documentation that usually accompanies the program
for reasons of size (and because I haven't converted it yet). Someday soon
I'll get around to it. In the meantime, you'll have to simply use the
examples and the online help (type '(help)' at the CLIPS> prompt).
Note: Comments about this port should sent to Justin Fletcher, and not to
NASA, COSMIC or others. All bugs are my own, all features theirs.
COSMIC stated to me that although they deal with commercial requests for
the software, if you obtain the sources by other means (eg a web search,
then it is nothing to do with them).
