Re: MySQL integration...

Wow, Ciao looks clever!

I will def. check that out sometime.

In the meantime I have been writing a GNU Prolog extension that wraps dynamic 
library loading… I figured that if I was going to use existing libraries it 
would be smarter to be able to wrap *any* C library so I am working on an FFI 
library for gprolog I guess.

Much to my amazement after only a few hours, never having written gprolog C 
code before, I have a working dlopen(), dlclose() and dlerror() going on!

I want to stick with GNU Prolog for various reasons but Cia def looks 
interesting. Thatks for that!
