Abstract

If you suppose that it would be pointless to simulate proof-on-paper; if you imagine that all the problems of interactive theorem-proving are solved; if you are sure that making a user interface is a matter of bolting a bit of Tcl/Tk onto a theorem-proving engine; if you believe the more buttons the better in a graphical user interfaces — read no further, lest your prejudices be disturbed!
