[ANNOUNCEMENT] New package: SWI-Prolog-5.2.6-1


This new package contains SWI-Prolog, an open source interpreter
and compiler for Prolog.

This is the latest stable release 5.2.6.  This package is built
from the vanilla sources with only two additional `#ifndef __CYGWIN__'
in one file to get it built.  It requires Cygwin 1.5.x to run.

SWI-Prolog is an ISO compatible Prolog compiler.  It has a good
collection of built-in predicates, a large set of which it shares
with Edinburgh C-Prolog, Quintus Prolog and SICStus Prolog.  Among
its features are a very fast compiler, a Quintus-like module system,
library autoloading, garbage collection, atom garbage collection,
fast bidirectional C interface, true C++ interface, execution profiling
and many more.

The installed interpreter/compiler is called "pl".  `man pl' gives
you a first start.

See the SWI-Prolog home page at http://www.swi-prolog.org for more
details.


To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "Devel" or
"Interpreters" and then click on the appropriate field until the above
announced version number appears if it is not displayed already.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list at: cygwin@cygwin.com .  I would appreciate it if you would
use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.  This includes
ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list
is the appropriate place.
