Term I/O

Predicates

display(+Term)

Term is displayed on the current output --- without considering operator definitions.

display(+Stream, +Term)

Term is displayed on the output stream Stream --- without considering operator definitions.

portray_goal(+Term, ?TransTerm)

Apply the goal portray (write macro) transformation to Term

print(?Term)

The term Term is written on the output stream according to the current operator declarations, using the predicate portray/2 or portray/1 if it exists.

print(+Stream, ?Term)

The term Term is written on the output stream Stream according to the current operator declarations, using the predicate portray/2 or portray/1 if it exists.

printf(+Format, ?ArgList)

The arguments in the argument list ArgList are interpreted according to the Format string and the result is printed to the output stream.

printf(+Stream, +Format, ?ArgList)

The arguments in the argument list ArgList are interpreted according to the Format string and the result is printed on the output Stream.

read(?Term)

Succeeds if the next term from the input stream is successfully read and unified with Term.

read(+Stream, ?Term)

Succeeds if the next term from the input stream Stream is successfully read and unified with Term.

read_exdr(+Stream, -Term)

A term in EXDR-format is read from the input stream Stream and converted to the corresponding ECLiPSe term Term.

read_term(?Term, +Options)

Read a whole term in ECLiPSe syntax from the current input stream, according to Options

read_term(+Stream, ?Term, +Options)

Read a whole term in ECLiPSe syntax from the input stream Stream, according to Options

readvar(+Stream, ?Term, -VarList)

Succeeds if the next Prolog term from the input stream Stream is successfully read and unified with Term, and any variables in Term are collected in the list VarList, together with their names.

write(?Term)

The term Term is written on output stream according to the current operator declarations.

write(+Stream, ?Term)

The term Term is written on the output stream Stream according to the current operator declarations.
