+ The GNU Prolog interface to the PPL is available both as a ``PPL
+ enhanced'' GNU Prolog interpreter and as a library that can be linked
+ to GNU Prolog programs.  Only GNU Prolog version 1.2.19 and later
+ versions are supported.
+ 
+ So that it can be used with the GNU Prolog PPL interface (and, for
+ that matter, with any foreign code), the GNU Prolog installation must
+ be configured with the `--disable-regs' option.
+ 
+ 
+ The `ppl_gprolog' Executable
+ ----------------------------
+ 
+ The `ppl_gprolog' executable is simply the GNU Prolog interpreter with
+ the Parma Polyhedra Library linked in.  The only thing you should do
+ to use the library is to call `ppl_initialize/0' before any other PPL
+ predicate and to call `ppl_finalize/0' when you are done with the
+ library.
+ 
+ 
+ Linking the Library To GNU Prolog Programs
+ ------------------------------------------
+ 
+ In order to allow linking GNU Prolog programs to the PPL, the
+ following files are installed in the directory `<prefix>/lib/ppl',
+ where <prefix> is the root of your installation (`/usr' or
+ `/usr/local' in most cases): `ppl_gprolog.pl' contains the required
+ foreign declarations; `libppl_gprolog.*' contain the executable code
+ for the GNU Prolog interface in various formats (static library,
+ shared library, libtool library).  If your GNU Prolog program is
+ constituted by, say, `source1.pl' and `source2.pl' and you want to
+ create the executable `myprog', your compilation command may look like
+ 
+     gplc -o myprog <prefix>/lib/ppl/ppl_gprolog.pl source1.pl source2.pl \
+       -L '-L<prefix>/lib/ppl -lppl_gprolog -L<prefix>/lib \
+       -lppl -lgmpxx -lgmp -lstdc++'

+ The SWI-Prolog interface to the PPL is available both as a statically
+ linked module or as a dynamically linked one.  Only SWI-Prolog version
+ 5.6.0 and later versions are supported.
+ 
+ 
+ The `ppl_pl' Executable
+ -----------------------
+ 
+ The `ppl_pl' executable is simply the SWI-Prolog shell with the Parma
+ Polyhedra Library statically linked: from within `ppl_pl' all the
+ services of the library are available without further action.
+ 
+ 
+ Loading the SWI-Prolog Interface Dynamically
+ --------------------------------------------
+ 
+ In order to dynamically load the library from SWI-Prolog you should
+ simply load `<prefix>/lib/ppl/ppl_swiprolog.pl', where <prefix> is the
+ root of your installation (`/usr' or `/usr/local' in most cases).
+ This will invoke `ppl_initialize/0' and `ppl_finalize/0'
+ automatically.  Alternatively, you can load the library directly with
+ 
+     :- load_foreign_library('<prefix>/lib/ppl/libppl_swiprolog').
+ 
+ This will call `ppl_initialize/0' automatically.  Analogously,
+ 
+     :- unload_foreign_library('<prefix>/lib/ppl/libppl_swiprolog').
+ 
+ will, as part of the unload process, invoke `ppl_finalize/0'.
+ 
+ Notice that, for dynamic linking to work, you should have configured
+ the library with the `--enable-shared' option (on most platforms this
+ is the default).

+ The YAP Prolog interface to the PPL is available as a dynamically
+ linked module.  Only YAP version 5.1.1 and following are supported.
+ 
+ In order to dynamically load the library from YAP you should simply
+ load `<prefix>/lib/ppl/ppl_yap.pl', where <prefix> is the root of your
+ installation (`/usr' or `/usr/local' in most cases).  This will invoke
+ `ppl_initialize/0' automatically; it is the programmer's
+ responsibility to call `ppl_finalize/0' when the PPL library is no
+ longer needed.  Notice that, for dynamic linking to work, you should
+ have configured the library with the `--enable-shared' option (on most
+ platforms this is the default).
