2 Help and Exiting
The basic system prompt is:
ailog:
This means that AILog is waiting for input from the user. All user inputs end with a period (".") and a return (enter).
At any stage you can ask for help by issuing a help command:
ailog: help.
This gives a brief description of the available commands.
To quit AILog, you can issue the command:
ailog: quit.
AILog is written in Prolog. To exit AILog to the underlying Prolog, you can use the command: .
ailog: prolog.
To restart AILog, you should use the command:
| ?- start.
at the prolog prompt. Note that this does not clear the knowledge base.
To turn on reporting the run time of queries, you can do
ailog: stats runtime.
On some systems, this is the elapsed time since the query was asked or the user asked for more answers, which may be a very inaccurate of run time if there was user interaction. To turn off reporting of run time, you can do:
ailog: stats none.
