A Generic Theory Browser

-

-Proof General has very limited mechanisms for helping the user find -theorems and definitions during a proof. It has notion of displaying -a "current context" for a proof, and configuration with a proof -engine command for searching for theorems. It would be useful to -extend these facilities with a theory browser for investigating -the theories currently defined in (or available from) a running proof -assistant. This involves designing a small protocol to communicate -with the proof assistant and a generic way of displaying theories -which have different aspects from system to system. A way which would -fit in well with Emacs would be to use a dired-like buffer. -

-

-An alternative version of this project would be to write a standalone -theory browser which uses an extension of the forthcoming Proof -General standardized protocol for interaction (see white paper here). This could be implemented in -Java, or in a functional language, Perl, C or C++, so long as a nice -toolkit is chosen (Qt or GTK). -

-

-(For a related idea, see the browser integrated with OCaml). -

-

-Skills: -Interface programming skills. -Basic understanding of what theories are for several different proof -assistants. -

-Proposer: -David Aspinall. -
