   Before we start with the implementation, it is useful to describe the general
-  form of inductive definitions that our package should accept. We closely follow
-  the notation for inductive definitions introduced by Schwichtenberg
-  \cite{Schwichtenberg-MLCF} for the Minlog system.
-  Let $R_1,\ldots,R_n$ be mutually inductive predicates and $\vec{p}$ be
-  parameters. Then the introduction rules for $R_1,\ldots,R_n$ may have

   Note that by disallowing the inductive predicates to occur in $\vec{B}_{ij}$ we make sure
   that all occurrences of the predicates in the premises of the introduction rules are
   \emph{strictly positive}. This condition guarantees the existence of predicates
