Summary: 

/**/
	I have been interested in Prolog for some time, but only recently
have I been able to try my hand at programming, due to the lack of Prolog
for the Amiga (sigh). Now, however, I have been experimenting with Borland's
Turbo Prolog on the GRiD, and I have a few questions:
	1) Is there a generally recognized 'best' Prolog for the PC?
	2) Is it a compiler, is it expensive? (Turbo is a compiler, cheap)
	3) does it support calling C functions? (Turbo does)
	4) does it include the clause() and call() clauses? (Turbo does not)
	5) how rough is the PD C-Prolog?
	6) how about prolog for the Amiga? (drool)
Thankyou for your comments, flames welcome (ward off frostbite :-) ...sjk
