Under MacOS or under A/UX?

I managed to get my hacked version of C-Prolog up under A/UX in less than
an hour, most of that dealing with A/UX 1.0 C compiler bugs.  I no longer
have access to a Mac, but I distributed the sources _to people who already
had a C-Prolog license_ for the charge of a tape + mailing.  The changes
are public -- feel free to copy them, i just charge for the tape as i
hate making them.  The banner reads something
like:	C-Prolog 1.5n7
                    ^^- the 'n' indicates one of my versions

As all that we have way out here is a Sun, all i can now write is Sun
catridges.  The changes I made include: speed ups, increasing the memory
efficiency (on many -- but not all) systems, and fix bugs.  I've been using
it for several years.  It has run on everything from IBM mainframes
(under UTS) to Vaxen, Sequents, Suns, Macs...  Even brain-dead Sun386i's.
Still no garbage collector though.

Other thought:  Have you considered SB Prolog (arizona.edu).  It's free, good,
(and once a garbage-collector is added), real.

If you are not running under A/UX, there are several commercial possibilities,
I've used ALS Prolog and liked it, but i'm biased.
