Thanks for the help (and apologies for the belligerent tone of my message: one should never be obnoxious when addressing those who provide good free software!).

The changes in the note below worked and ciao built fine (on my Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro, OS X 10.4.10), though I have a couple of notes to add for the next person who wants to do the same. >> From: Edward Janne <tigakub(a)mac.com> >> Sender: owner-ciao-users(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es >> To: ciao-users(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es >> Subject: ciao on Mactel >> Date: Mon, 28 Aug 2006 15:52:56 +0200 >> >> Hi I've successfully compiled ciao on a MacBook Pro by making minor >> changes to the install scripts. >> >> In the file >> $(CIAO_SRC_DIR)/etc/ciao_get_arch >> >> under the line reading >> Darwin,"Power Macintosh" ) CIAOARCH=DARWINppc ;; #JFMC >> >> add the line >> Darwin,"i386" ) CIAOARCH=DARWINi386 Actually, in the ciao-1.10p8 distribution this line already exists, but it says "i86" instead of "i386".

Almost. After adding a symlink from the distro directory to /usr/ local/src/ciao/, I also added the following to my .profile (I use bash) to pick up the initialization: > if [ -r /usr/local/src/ciao/etc/DOTprofile ]; then > . /usr/local/src/ciao/etc/DOTprofile > fi I use Aquamacs Emacs (a GUI version popular on Macs), and when started as an application, this doesn't inherit shell variables set in login files, so in order to get the emacs environment to work I added the following to my .emacs: > ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; > ;; Ciao prolog initialization > ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; > > (load "/usr/local/src/ciao/emacs-mode/DOTemacs") > (setenv "INFOPATH" (concat (getenv "INFOPATH") > ":/var/www/html/ciao/")) And it works.

ciao on Mac Intel
by Stephen Anderson 10 Jul '07

10 Jul '07

I just tried to install ciao on my (relatively) new Mac Intel machine, and I see that the architecture is apparently completely unknown (ciao-1.10p8). Since it's been a LONG time since Macs on Intel became more or less the standard, I take it that ciao has abandoned Macs altogether. Lots of Windows-specific stuff, but nothing for Intel Macs. Right? If not, I'd appreciate a pointer on how to build ciao on this system.

Here is a session on how you can use the tokenizer in Ciao: Ciao 1.13.0-8283: Tue Jun 26 10:25:23 CEST 2007 ?- use_module(library(tokenize)). Note: module tokenize already in executable, just made visible yes ?- read_tokens(TokenList, Dictionary). |: p(X,Y). Dictionary = dic([88],[_B|_],_,dic([89],[_A|_],_,_)), TokenList = [atom(p),'(',var(_B,[88]),',',var(_A,[89]),')','.'] ? Note, however, that this is not a generic tokenizer, but rather a tokenizer for a particular (Prolog-style) syntax. If you want to write a tokenizer for another language you can look at how tokenize.pl is implemented. Another good pointer is to use DCGs (see the 'dcg' package). --Manuel H -- ----------------------- The Ciao System Development Team -------------------- The CLIP Group | Technical University of Madrid ciao(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es | University of New Mexico http://www.cliplab.org / http://www.ciaohome.org ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================================================================== Message: Address: Action: help majordomo(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Info. on useful commands subscribe ciao-users-request(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Subscribe to this list unsubscribe ciao-users-request(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Unsubscribe from this list <whatever> ciao-users(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Send message to list ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archived messages: http://www.clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Mail/ciao-users/ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
