No worries. I can wait. Thanks again for your efforts.

I'm just a Prolog beginner, but this:

edge(e,b).

tedge(Node1,Node2) :-

        edge(SomeNode,Node2).

#+end_src

keeps giving me this:

executing Prolog source code block

org-babel-execute:prolog: Wrong type argument: char-or-string-p, ni

Thank you for reporting a bug. I think I see what the problem is. You haven't defined a goal for the source block and ob-prolog doesn't guard for that. It should be easy to fix, but I am not sure if I will be able to do that before next week. If you want you can try to fix it yourself and send a PR on GitHub or a patch here. 

BTW, should it be

(eval-after-load 'org

  '(require 'ob-prolog))

or 

(eval-after-load "org"

  '(require 'ob-prolog))

. . . org in quotes?

I think both should work. I can't check right now as I only have my phone with me right now.

Yes, I typed it wrong. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I also discovered that it is better to use `org-babel-do-load-languages’ instead as well. I will change the recommendation tomorrow.
