I tried "run-prolog" and got a prompt. It seems fine for me.

Please try

	(setq process-connection-type t)

in your .emacs.
  I'm not sure this fix your problem because its default value changed 
to be "t"
on the CVS repository since 2002/06/29.

BUT when process-connection-type is t, we do not sometimes get right 
result
from sub-process (the final parts of the output of the subprocess may 
be lost
-- This is pseudo-tty problem).
  e.g.  auctex, M-x grep.

On the other hand, when process-connection-type is nil,
some interactive subprocess cannot work as we expected (but it's not a 
bug).
  e.g. job-control is disabled in shell-mode (M-x shell / tcsh),
   no prompt in inferior-prolog-mode.


To fix pseudo-tty problem, I am trying to find workaround for the bug 
of the
pseudo-tty on MacOSX in vain.

Anyone have a suggestion?
