The following commands let you jump to a piece of Prolog code from anywhere in Emacs:
Prompt for a known Prolog module and find its source code.
Prompt for a known Prolog predicate and find its source code.
sweeprolog-find-module
and sweeprolog-find-predicate
prompt you for a Prolog identifier (respectively, a module name or a
predicate indicator), and jump to its source definition. Sweep
integrates with Emacs’s standard completion API to annotate candidate
modules in the completion UI with a summary line derived from their
documentation, when available.
By default, these commands use the current window to display the selected module or predicate. To have it in another window instead, invoke these commands with a prefix argument (C-u M-x sweeprolog-find-predicate RET).
The command sweeprolog-find-predicate
uses the function
sweeprolog-read-predicate
for prompting you to insert a
predicate indicator in the minibuffer. This is the standard function
that Sweep commands use for this purpose. It provides completion
candidates based on known predicates, and it uses the predicate at
point, if any, as the default minibuffer argument. By default,
sweeprolog-read-predicate
includes all predicates that Sweep
knows about as completion candidates, except for predicates whose
functor name begins with $
, because that’s the convention in
SWI-Prolog for internal predicates that are usually of little interest
to users. To include also these predicates as completion candidates,
customize the user option
sweeprolog-predicate-visible-p-function
to nil
.
