Downloads
At the moment we provide only a Linux (i586) binary and a Windows binary. Other systems' executables will be sooner available.
Download the latest linux (i586) version ([http://sv.mat.unical.it/~ianni/dlpt/dlpt.linux.1.1.zip 1.1]).

Note: since DLT invokes DLV, you will need the DLV executable. Please find all versions at the official [http://www.dlvsystem.com webpage]. A limited compatibility with other solvers such as [http://www.tcs.hut.fi/Software/smodels/ Smodels] is also provided.

[http://www.mat.unical.it/kali/dlv-ex DLV-EX] is an Answer Set Programming System with External Predicates, featuring a framework aimed at enabling ASP to deal with external sources of computation. It has been implemented and is currently maintained by members of the DLV team from Università della Calabria (some of them are involved also into the DLT project). DLV-EX features will be soonly part of the DLV System. It allows DLT as a pre-parser.
[http://www.kr.tuwien.ac.at/staff/roman/dlvhex/ DLV-HEX] features "second order" external predicates taking relational input an returning relational output, as well as higher order atoms. It allows DLT as a pre-parser.
