I am beginning to look for a Prolog environment for my Mac 2.
I'd appreciate any recommendations or comments.

My main criteria are:
	1) Be somewhat standard (easy to move programs from Quintus
	   C and SB prolog on other machines)
	2) Use the large amount of memory I have.
	3) Be CHEAP (a public domain one, like SB etc would be best)
	4) Be moderately efficient (interpretters won't cut it unless
		they absolutely excell in the top 3 catagories.
Availability of the Mac toolbox, an integrated editor, and a macintosh
user interface are nice, but aren't essential. 

Has anyone considered porting an available one (ie SB-Prolog, CProlog
or Sicstus) to the Mac?

Thanks,
	Mike
