Research direction

Start with the SWI-Prolog homepage and Download page to confirm the 8.5.x development series and its supported platform details. Then review Compiler Explorer's existing compiler integrations and determine what is required for Prolog input and generated WAM machine code to be available; done means SWI-Prolog can be selected and produces inspectable output.
