I want to run the program entitiled 'hello.pl'

mes(hello).
mes(world):-statistics.

main(X):-mes(X).

The following happens:

~/binpro1.43/progs (650) bp hello.pl
BinProlog 1.43: Copyright (C) Paul Tarau-1992

begin loading hello.pl...
...finished loading
error: *** no definition for: main/1 ***

I tried to compile and/or run the program in the interactive mode, but
I can only do so after typing boot. I'm pretty confident I'm not
supposed to bootstrap it every time I run BinProlog. I'd like to be
able to run the program from the command line. What am I missing?
Please send email to sanded@rpi.edu

Thanks,
David T. Sanders
