 unix(+Action)

This predicate provides a partial emulation of the corresponding Quintus predicate. It provides access to some operating system features and unlike the name suggests, is not operating system specific. Defined actions are below.

system(+Command)

Equivalent to shell(Command)

shell(+Command)

Equivalent to shell(Command)

access(File,0)

Equivalent to access_file(File, read)

cd(Dir)

Equivalent to working_directory(_, Dir)

args(List)

Equivalent to current_prolog_flag(os_argv, List).

argv(List)

Equivalent to args(List), but arguments that are syntactically valid numbers are passed as a number.

  130unix(system(Command)) :-
  131    shell(Command).
  132unix(shell(Command)) :-
  133    shell(Command).

True when Old is the current position in Stream and the stream has been repositioned to New.

deprecated
