After years of programming in various languages including ciao prolog (all with vi), I have at last gritted my teeth and faced up to using the Ciao Emacs environment.
I have 2 problems that have stopped me so far.
1. In the Ciao query window the first query works as expected but when it completes a. the query prompt ?- shows on a new line b. but the cursor is before it instead of after. c. arrow keys etc are echoed OK but the query engine does not respond.
What have I done wrong? The emacs uses terminfo and TERM=xterm
2. Xemacs.
Xemacs does not show the Ciao menu at all or recognise the Ciao control sequences (C-c l, etc) Does Xemacs need separate init files from emacs?
My environment : Opensuse 11.3 emacs 23 ciao 1.10p8
