Many thanks - that did the trick for running the listener window.
I still can't make the listener window listen; i.e when I "call query" under "query and main file" the query is written to the listener window and then nothing. (I have been trying to run the hello world program). My guess is that I'm not launching the query properly. Does the listener window listen?

I had the same problem. In my case it was due to the use of backslashes in the DOTemaces.el file in the Ciao Directory. All instances of say e:\ need to be changed to e:/
For example: "E:\prolog/ciao-1.7p30Win32/shell/ciaosh.bat"
should be changed to
"E:/prolog/ciao-1.7p30Win32/shell/ciaosh.bat"

I seem to be having a problem running ciao from emacs. (Installation seems correct: I do have the Info reader files, syntax coloring, and prolog mode menus.) I know very little about emacs, so it could be something simple, like making sure emacs knows wherer ciao is. In short, I am not able to do the following:
- Loading the file using the `Ciao/Prolog' menu (or typing <^C> <l>) should start in another emacs buffer the Ciao toplevel shell and load the file. You should now be able to switch the the toplevel shell and make queries from within `emacs'.
Here is the error message:
Spawning child process: exec format errorI'm using ciao under Win95 (ciao version 20.7). One complication of my system is that it is installed on a Zip drive D:, and the .emacs file seems to have to be on C: root. I doubt if that is important, though it did take a while to figure out why emacs was not reading the .emacs file.
Any suggestions or samples for tracking down the problem?
