Abstract
Previous chapters describe the mural proof assistant, both at the abstract level and in terms of the specification of the system. We should not forget that this abstraction has been realized as a working piece of software. This chapter discusses the process of implementation and points out some of the things we learned along the way that we believe may be of interest or significance to others. This is not the place to attempt to give full detail of the implementation, rather we attempt to illustrate the general structure and to focus on some of the interesting issues in its development. It is written more for the curious than for those who would like to implement their own version of the system1. This chapter deals specifically with the implementation of the mural proof assistant, but much of it applies to the entire mural system.
