Hi there,

I want to do a clone of the Turbo Prolog 2. Writing the code from scratch. Do I need to request any authorization from Borland to do that?

Any help will be appreciate.

Thanx,

Exoide.

Borland sold Turbo Prolog years ago. Most likely, you would need to
talk to whoever bought it from them. (On the other hand, they do not
own the Prolog language itself.)

For that matter, Paul Graham has an implementation of Prolog written
in Common Lisp, measuring only 180 lines long! It's in a book called
On Lisp, and you can download it if you're interested (for free) from
his website. It's an advanced lisp book, but if you "get" the topics
it covers, you have leared a lot of advanced ideas in computer
science in a practical way. I highly doubt that Paul Graham had
spoken to Borland before writing this book.
