Thank you! It’s always happy to hear that my writings are actually useful 👌 Yours was a invitation to review the test cases, really, several infelicities have been fixed! I have not put your idea into the test cases because they don’t really fit, but as “an application” of dict\_pairs/3 under With best regards, – David ---

I put a little howto under the page [SWI-Prolog downloads](https://www.swi-prolog.org/Download.html) on how to compile on Linux using my [homegrown script](https://github.com/dtonhofer/prolog_notes/blob/45f15e13a093c7ea8da5f90f6af662592f7bd891/compiling/swiprologpull.sh). It works pretty well by now. The latest SWI-Prolog release doesn’t pass the core tests so “running the test” has to be commented out in that script. But Jan has fixed this snag already.
