... and change the coloring done in many other modules.
compiler/typecheck_error_undef.m:
Add color to the diagnostics generated by this module.
In a few cases, improve the wording of the diagnostic.
Make the name of a function and of a function symbol more descriptive.
Convert some predicates from using many clauses to using
an explicit disjunction.
Delete a function that was sort-of a specialize version of a
utility function in error_spec.m.
compiler/hlds_error_util.m:
Change the functions that return descriptions of predicates and procedures,
mostly for use in diagnostics, to allow the parts of those descriptions
specific to an individual predicate or procedure to be colored *without*
coloring the generic parts (such as the word "predicate" or "function").
Add simpler versions of the affected functions for use cases that
do not need any coloring.

Mercury
Mercury is a logic/functional programming language which combines the clarity and the expressiveness of declarative programming with advanced static analysis and error detection features.
More information is available on the website's about pages, in other README files in the source code repository, and in the documentation.
Small sample programs written in Mercury can be found in the samples and extras directories of the source code repository.
README files
The Mercury compiler has two different backends and works on different operating systems. Specific information is contained in individual README files:
-
Bootstrapping discusses how to get Mercury installed.
This is important, as the Mercury compiler is written in Mercury.
-
C Low-level backend
This backend works well with GCC but also works with:
-
High-level backend targets
-
Supported operating systems
-
Other platform information
Other information
See the current release notes for the latest stable release. The news file lists any recent changes. The history file is relevant if you want to find out more about the past development of Mercury. The limitations file lists some ways in which the Mercury implementation does not yet meet its goals.
Information for developers
If you are considering contributing to the Mercury project, the website contains some documents that may be helpful. These include a document about contributions in general and specific information about contributing such as coding styles.
