1 Introduction
Inspite of the considerable achievements of the formal proof
programme, take-up of these systems by mathematicians and
programmers remains poor. At least one reason for this is
the lack of good development tools. The Proof General (PG)
project is an ongoing attempt to redress this issue. Here we
present PG/ECLIPSE, an interface/development environment
that marks a new phase in the project.
2 The PG/ECLIPSE Interface
PG/ECLIPSE provides a rich range of features, many of
which will be familiar to users of modern programming IDEs.
· Proof scripts (and projects) are presented to the user via
a specialised text-editor and associated viewers (e.g. the
