I agree. It is an annoyance that unquoted write is the default, e.g. for
displaying exceptions. I often find myself painstakingly going through
terms and manually adding quotes so I can paste them back into the toplevel.

Is there an easy way to make SWI-Prolog use quoted write instead, e.g.
by setting a flag?
