Ciao Prolog without Cygwin?

[Jan Burse]

Can I use ciao prolog without cygwin? I get
the following error:

Hi Jan,

It seems like a permission error. Installation did not generate precompiled
binaries for those library modules so the system is trying to compile them
(presumably) in a place where your user do not have write access. It should
be fixed in the next (minor) release of the development version. In any
case it is not a major problem: the system should still work normally even
if those files are not there.

As a workaround, you may use the modules or packages from a privileged
user. Once the precompiled versions are there it is not necessary to
regenerate them again.

Thank you

Hi Jan,

It seems that some 'cd' in a shell script uses an unquoted string (i.e.,
'cd $foo' instead of 'cd "$foo"'). We are currently working on that kind of
errors (as well as removing many unnecessary shell scripts). Could you give
us the exact command that raised that error?

Thank you

Hi,
I am running Ciao (the .bat) in Administrator mode. The
permission errors are now gone.
sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
sh: -c: line 0: `cd /cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/CiaoDE/ciao/library/*
*random
; gcc -c -I/home/ciaobot/ciaobot-data/**vm_winxp/source/master/CiaoDE/**

But somehow it seems to me that I can ignore it. Or
what is the advice here.
Bye
