Anyone know where I can find a cheap and reliable proof checker for 
natural deduction derivations of the first-order predicate calculus?
Objective: teaching logic at the Second Year level. I'm hoping that the
proof language will be one that lends itself to proof theory, e.g., to the
translation to sequent calculus. (For this reason I prefer not to use a
system like MIZAR [Trybulec & al] whose language simulates ordinary
mathematical discourse.) I also don't want a system designed as a theorem
prover: just a checker!

Thanks for any help,
A Malton
