procedure

I want to load this simple something into my Editor:

Write:-repeat,write("hi"),nl,fail.

So that it prints "hi".

What should I do?

I'm currently trying to do File->New

and Saving a file named Write into E:\Program Files\pl\xpce\prolog\lib

When doing the query:

?-Write.

It's printing:

1 ?- Write.
% ... 1,000,000 ............ 10,000,000 years later
% 
%       >> 42 << (last release gives the question)

Why?

SWI-Prolog tokenize_atom/2 replacement?

What I need to do is to break atom to tokens. E. g.: tokenize_string('Hello, World!', L). would unify L=['Hello',',','World','!']. Exactly as tokenize_atom/2 do. But when I try to use tokenize_atom/2 with non-latin letters it fails. Is there any universal replacement or how I can write one? Thanks… >>> More
