Indeed, if I were required to use a "pure" language, I simply would not bother with prolog at all: Scheme _IS_ a far superior language. By the way, is there some sort of "Academie Francais" of CS lingo out there? Mebbe someone in a university should set one up so as we can all ignore it. The fact remains that PDCProlog provides much of the functionality of "pure" Prolog and possesess the features like timers, static typing and execution speed (*10 faster than "pure" prolog) needed for real-time applications.
