Visual Prolog 6.0 Release Candidate
Personal Edition

1. Purpose

Visual Prolog is a complete programming environment based on the
Prolog programming language.  Visual Prolog is completely object
oriented, and combines the best features of many programming
paradigms.

Visual Prolog is the successor of TURBO Prolog and PDC Prolog.

It contains everything needed for building large-scale commercial
applications: complete graphical development environment, compiler,
linker and debugger.

Visual Prolog includes a large library with bindings to a range of
APIs: Including Windows GUI, ODBC databases and Internet (sockets,
ftp, http, cgi, etc).

The development environment is written entirely in Visual Prolog,
and contains a number of Code Experts and graphical editors for
dialogs, menus, toolbars etc.

Visual Prolog is very well suited for expert systems, planning and
other AI related problems.

Visual Prolog supports: Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP
