While porting a big C-Prolog program to SICStus Prolog, I encounter
the following problem:

To make the program readable, I gave a name to many variables which
are essentially _ (don't care). When (re)consulting my program,
every time many screens of such warnings are produced which
slow down the testing and programming annoyingly.

Does anybody know, how to suppress these warnings or to
maintain the same expressivity of code without creating those
"singleton variables".

Thanks

	Ralf
