I should have explained.
It is 64 bit on a 32 bit platform, using streams instead of files.
Stream-handles happen to be 64 bits in Visual Prolog, don't know about C++.

I did indeed come up with some C glue but halas not generic. Would like to
make it more generic with some help on how to properly handle ellipses in C.
Very hard to find in the books! For a start I would have to give the
ellipsis a name to be passed on.
