Haskell Lazy library(pio) has no problem (Was: More Cringe, even PEG is now better off than DCG)

Hi,
BTW: A Haskell Lazy library(pio) has no problem
with (\+)/3 and (!)/2. If this was the reason
for restricting DCG , then good night.

Hi,
 More cringe incoming:
 Implementations conforming to this TS shall not
define or use a predicate !/2.

 Guess what DCG gets almost rendered totally
useless without (\+)/3 and (!)/2. Especially
for efficient and intelligent parsing.
 With (\+)/3 and (!)/2 its gets close to PEG:
 Parsing expression grammar (PEG)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsing_expression_grammar
 PEG doesn't shy away from Not-predicate: !e, here an example:
 C     ← Begin N* End
Begin ← '(*'
End   ← '*)'
N     ← C / (!Begin !End .)
 Homework: do it in Prolog.

 P.S.: Check out gprolog, its very easy:
 /* GNU Prolog 1.5.0 (64 bits) */
p --> q, !, r.
p --> q, !.
 And then:
 /* GNU Prolog 1.5.0 (64 bits) */
?- listing.
p(A, B) :-
     q(A, C), !,
     r(C, B).
p(A, B) :-
     q(A, C), !,
     C = B.

P.S.: You can check yourself, it fully supports (\+)/3:

p --> \+ q, r.
p --> \+ q.

?- listing.
p(A, B) :-
     \+ q(A, _),
     r(A, B).
p(A, B) :-
     \+ q(A, _),
     A = B.

Currently the marketplace shows me only one Prolog
plugin, but it rather adresses gprolog than SWI-Prolog.
Strange I think there were more. But if plugins don’t

I didn’t try the below yet, seems to be new!

So only I Prolog tries to tap into a company like
JetBrains that has profit of at least 200 million USD
per year, with a growth of 5 - 7% per year.

But it wasn’t me! PrologCode is a plugin for IntelliJ
IDEA that provides support for the Prolog language.

Specifically, it provides:

Prolog syntax highlighting
Prolog code completion
Prolog code folding
Prolog code navigation

Three different ways to run a GNU Prolog REPL
Real-time background syntax checking.

Initially, this plugin was developed as part of
a project for the course “Programmation
logique” at HEIA-FR.

Wanna found an IDE business. Well the Editor

you wings like red bull, is this:

- Instant editing:
   Files don’t really have a modified status,
   they get directly written. Typically the MVC
   is buffer based there. But for instant editing,
   buffers are written when an application switch happens.

- Local File Content History:
   IntelliJ keeps a local file content history.
   This compensates the dangers of instant editing.
   Instant editing is very useful for tool interaction,
   like interacting with a Prolog system. Through local
   file content history I can view local changes and
   undo them across IDE starts.

- CVS Integration:
   IntelliJ has CVS integration, like SVN, GIT, etc..
   through their local history. You can freely choose
   what to commit or not. And you can also receive
   changes from a repo.
>
- File System Operation Integration:
   Local File Content History and CVS Integration are
   in sync with refactoring. So when I move a file, this
   is a move on the file system. But File Content History
   and CVS don’t get confused by a move. The simply show it
   in their history as well.
>
- File Content Index:
   The IDE also maintains a global text index, and
   this text index gets notified by external changes and
   internal changes. They pretty well have it always accurate,
   including file moves, lengthy re-indexing of a whole
   repository happens rarely.

You end up with the PiLLoW framework,

This is the worst "milestone" ever in Prolog.
