XWIP: X-Windows Interface for PROLOG.

lang/prolog/gui/xwip/
XWIP (X Window Interface for Prolog) allows Prolog to be used as a client program for the X Windows System. The additional functions it provides are similar in form to the Xlib C language library. XWIP is written in Prolog and partly in the C language. XWIP uses a foreign function interface to allow the Prolog code to call the C code. The C code in turn calls the Xlib C language library. [In the old/ subdirectory are versions 0.6 (X11 R5), patch1 for 0.6, 0.5 (X11 R4), and 0.4 (X11 R3).]
