I'm running Win XP Pro SP2, and do not have this problem. However, I have seen this error message before, and suspect it is caused by incorrect file...
In this case, the problem was caused by the dependence of KE for Windows on the Cygwin system. The temporary fix is to install Cygwin. The permanent fix (to...
... I have removed the call of "uname" in ke initialization. This "UNIX" command is the cause of the Cygwin dependence. The new 9/14/2004 version of kewin.zip...
Here is a brief overview of my user-friendly interfaces to the TAP and OpenCyc knowledge bases. 1. Requires Java and TAP/OpenCyc API. The Java programs in...

MKE version 6.7 adds two new control structures: while and until. For example: set finished = no; while $finished is no { ... set finished = yes; ... }; set...
MKE 6.7 now includes (Jul/30/2005) an augmented "every" control structure, similar to that of Unicon. For example: every i from 1 to 10 { do print od $i done; ...
MKE 6.7 (Jul/31/2005) provides for local variables in methods and relations. Local variables are useful for avoiding name conflicts when executing nested ...
Although I designed MKR to use numbered arguments to be consistent with the UNIX shell, I implemented MKE in a way that actually permits you to use named...
MKE 6.7 (Aug/5/2005) permits the use of and,or,not in "if" statements. The propositions associated with and,or,not are enclosed in braces. The example below...
I have updated the tutorial to include how to interface with method and relation meanings which are implemented as Unicon procedures the new features...
Why the new syntax? When I invented MKR in 1996, I decided NOT to allow name[char] because it is not English-like. I have three reasons for changing my mind....
I added a makefile to the KEHOME/knowledge/applications/Genealogy directory so that you can easily add your own personalized report script. Dick McCullough ...
Here's a quick summary of current MKR/MKE capability using the new associative array syntax. You can download the new kewin.zip from my web site. Basic...
It's no longer plans for the future. I just used this MKR program http://rhm.cdepot.net/knowledge/applications/Genealogy/email.mkr to generate a "report" from...
I have added many new sections to the tutorial. http://rhm.cdepot.net/doc/MKEtutorial.html Much of this material was previously documented only in emails. Some...
When the meaning of a method is interpreted, $0 is set equal to the name of the event (this instance of execution of the method). Likewise, when the meaning of...
I have made significant improvements in the overview of MKR syntax http://rhm.cdepot.net/doc/MKRintro.html I recommend that you read this new version. Dick...
hdo and vdo are now fully functional, using exactly the same syntax as do. The meaning of "vdo ... done;" is simple. Remove the "v", and execute the resulting ...
First a couple of quick notes, then a final example. 1. I changed the MKR concept "VERB" to "verb". 2. I added a new function prop2verb(property) which returns...
I inadvertently added "definitions" to the simplified triple language. For the second line of the final example, I should have said ClassOfAbstractObject isu...
Given the continuing popularity of the triple format, I decided to offer you my own brand: Mtriples. Because Mtriples is a subset of the MKR language, it is...
Correction: {myverb isu verb;} is not quite right. You actually need to use myverb isu verb with ctype=binary relation; And just what does "binary relation"...
I just remembered that I have one "workaround" for the infinite loop problem. I ran into this same problem with the OpenCyc KB. They have half a dozen ...
I have just implemented the following convention in MKR/MKE. "i" is the qualifier for individuals. "i" is short, so MKR readability is still good. It's very...
Forget about the RDF/OWL distinction. Just enter kformat := mtriple; and MKE will load all the verbs (properties) for both RDF and OWL. Dick McCullough ...
Since human beings have built-in "hardware" for recognizing similarities and differences between objects, they often form concepts on an ad-hoc basis, without...
