Hum,

I have heard about this problem from several ppl but I have no idea how
to solve it.
Perhaps it helps you, if I send the whole sources (>250kb) to comp.sources.
atari.st ?

This error message is sent only, when one of the mallocs fails.
This is due to low memory only.
So either Gulam needs too much memory or Gulam gives a junk command line to
Xprolog.

Please note that I will not give anymore support for Xprolog.
(In fact it has expired from my harddisk about a year ago)
