PI and Ytoolkit: Prolog interfaces to X-Windows
lang/prolog/gui/pi/
PI (Portable Interfaces for Prolog applications) is an interface
between Prolog applications and the X Window System that aims to be
independent from the Prolog engine, provided that it has a
Quintus-style foreign function interface (such as SICStus, YAP). It
is mostly written in Prolog and is divided into two libraries:
1. Edipo, a low-level interface to the Xlib functions that allows
you to create and manage windows, use graphical primitives, and
receive events, and
2. Ytoolkit, a high-level user interface toolkit that allows you to
create and manage graphical objects, define new classes of objects,
and handle user interaction.
