MacCUP: Macintosh version of cu-Prolog III

lang/prolog/impl/clp/cup/mac/
cu-Prolog (Constraint Unification Prolog) is an experimental constraint logic programming language available free from Japan's Institute for New Generation Computer Technology (ICOT). Unlike most conventional CLP systems, cu-Prolog allows user-defined predicates as constraints. cu-Prolog is a complete implementation of Constraint Unification (cu), hence the name. cu-Prolog is suitable for implementing a natural language processing system for unification-based grammars. For example, the cu-Prolog developers implemented a JPSG (Japanese Phrase Structure Grammar) parser in cu-Prolog with the JPSG Working Group (headed by Prof. Takao Gunji of Osaka University) at ICOT. [Note: Japanese names have been rewritten in the order .] This directory contains MacCUP, the Apple Macintosh version of cu-Prolog III. It was ported by Professor Hidetosi Sirai of Chukyo University.

Version: MacCup 080c (7-SEP-93) Ports: cu-Prolog was originally implemented in C for BSD UNIX 4.2/3. Professor Sirai of Chukyo-University has ported cu-Prolog to the Apple Macintosh and DJ's GPP (80386/486 MS-DOS machine with the DOS extender). Copying: Copyright (c) 1991-93 ICOT.
