- While porting a big C-Prolog program to SICStus Prolog, I encounter
- the following problem:
-
- To make the program readable, I gave a name to many variables which
- are essentially _ (don't care). When (re)consulting my program,
- every time many screens of such warnings are produced which
- slow down the testing and programming annoyingly.
-
- Does anybody know, how to suppress these warnings or to
- maintain the same expressivity of code without creating those
- "singleton variables".
-
- Thanks
