Re: GNU Prolog 1.4.2 is released

Hello Daniel,
As the manual says:
"The GNU Prolog compiler (section 4.4, page 23) automatically calls 
expand term/2 on each Term1
read in. However, in the current release, only DCG transformation are 
done by the compiler (i.e.
term expansion/2 cannot be used)."
Do you have plans to be able to surpass this behavior so that one can 
use term_expansion on '-->', overriding the built-in expansion?
All the best,
Fernando
