Hi Ejfried,

As my Jess program gets a little bigger these days, a useful feature
of Prolog compilers I worked with before came to my mind: they issue a
warning when variables occur only a single time in a clause. This
helps keeping the code clean and shows potential problems
(miss-spellings of variable names). I think in Jess one could use the
same idea for defrules and defunctions. Warnings should not be issued
for anonymous variables (?, $?) which may be used to just occupy some
slot or position. Maybe that's a useful feat for some future version
of Jess.

Best
