does anybody know if exists a prolog emulator in clisp, with
backtracking and pattern matching facilities?
Thanks

Look at Peter Norvig's book: Paradigms of AI Programing. Sources to go
along with that can be found at:

	ftp://mkp.com/Norvig/

and maybe some other locations.

It's fun (once you get the feel for it) and it gives you access to much
of the useful stuff in Prolog without giving up the stuff you love in
Lisp. You can even write your own predicates in Lisp and make them
available in the Prolog.
