PREDICATEpretty_print/2
Usage:pretty_print(Cls,Flags)
Prints each clause in the list Cls after numbering its variables.
- The following properties should hold at call time:
(pretty_print:clauses/1)pretty_print:clauses(Cls)
(basic_props:list/2)Flags is a list of flags.
PREDICATEpretty_print/3
Usage:pretty_print(Cls,Flags,Ds)
Prints each clause in the list Cls after using the corresponding variable names dictionary in Ds to name its variables.
- The following properties should hold at call time:
(pretty_print:clauses/1)pretty_print:clauses(Cls)
(basic_props:list/2)Flags is a list of flags.
(vndict:varnamedict/1)Ds is a dictionary of variable names.

REGTYPEclauses/1
A regular type, defined as follows:
clauses([]).
clauses([_1|_2]) :-
clause(_1),
clauses(_2).
clauses(_1) :-
clause(_1).
REGTYPEclause/1
A regular type, defined as follows:
clause(_1) :-
clterm(_1).
clause((_1,_2)) :-
clterm(_1),
term(_2).
REGTYPEclterm/1
A regular type, defined as follows:
clterm(clause(_1,_2)) :-
cgoal(_1),
body(_2).
clterm(directive(_1)) :-
body(_1).
clterm((_1:-_2)) :-
cgoal(_1),
body(_2).
clterm(_1) :-
cgoal(_1).
REGTYPEbody/1
A well formed body, including cge expressions and &-concurrent expressions. The atomic goals may or may not have a key in the form ^(goal:any), and may or may not be module qualified, but if they are it has to be in the form ^(^(moddesc:goal):any).
Usage:body(X)
X is a printable body.
REGTYPEflag/1
A keyword ask/1 flags whether to output asks or whens and nl/1 whether to separate clauses with a blank line or not.
Usage:flag(X)
X is a flag for the pretty-printer.
