Create a TCP/IP based server on the given Port, so you can
telnet into Prolog and run an interactive session. This library
is intended to provide access for debugging and management of
embedded servers.
Currently defined options are:
- allow(IPOrList)
- Allow access from IP, a term of the format
ip(A,B,C,D), (IPv4)
or ip(A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H) (IPv6). Access is granted if the
Peer address as returned by tcp_accept/3 unifies with
IPOrList or, if IPOrList is a list, with a member of this list.
If no allow option is provided access is only granted from
ip(127,0,0,1) (localhost).
note Older versions allowed for repeating this option rather
than providing a list.
For example:
?- prolog_server(4000, []).
% ncat localhost 4000
Welcome to the SWI-Prolog server on thread client@127.0.0.1

- - The add-on
libssh provides an embedded SSH server. This
provides encryption as well as a pseudo terminal, providing
full commandline editing, history and interrupt processing.
- bug
- - As the connection does not involve a terminal, command
history and completion are not provided. Neither are interrupts
(Control-C). The Prolog shell can be terminated if
netcat shuts
down the socket on ^D (using the -N option). Otherwise one must
enter the command "end_of_file."
