Well you are not looking for a "good" editor, you are looking for an editor that you will like, and the only thing we know about your particular tastes are that you don't like VI (many people who use only VI all the time, think it is a good editor, which should be a reminder that this phrase is unhelpful flame bait). You should definitely try using EMACS. The learning curve is steep, but the capabilities are great. In particular if you are using GNAT, it is very nicely integrated with GNAT, GNATF and GDB, and the set of tools makes a powerful combination. Lots of people like EMACS and think it is good, who knows maybe you will be one more such person. Always bear in mind that editors are like programming languages, every single one has people who hate it and people who love it. P.S. I know quite a lot of Win95 users still using my old dved editor, available free all over the place. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 20+ messages in thread

Under the circumstances, consider using GNAT for DOS, a nice 32-bit system that runs perfectly well under Win 95 in a DOS window or in DOS mode. The ez2load distribution contains 2 useful editors, one with Borland/DOS style and one with Windows style, and a number of useful libraries. See attached for details. Mike Feldman ------ Sixth Release of ez2load Ada 95 Compiler and Tutorial Kit for MS-DOS -------------------------------------------------------------------- June 16, 1996 ------------ Michael B. Feldman (mfeldman@seas.gwu.edu) Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science The George Washington University Washington, DC 20052 (202) 994-5919 (voice) (202) 994-0227 (fax) We are happy to announce the sixth release of ez2load, an easy-install kit of free Ada 95 compilers and editors, and a shareware tutorial for Ada 95. This kit is intended for distribution on the July release of the Walnut Creek Ada CD-ROM, but it is equally useful as an ftp or diskette distribution. All components are freely distributable. ez2load is available by anonymous ftp at George Washington University: ftp://ftp.gwu.edu/pub/ada/ez2load at New York University ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/ez2load and also in the Public Ada LIbrary at ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/languages/ada/compiler/ez2load These sites are widely mirrored elsewhere. New in this release: ------------------- - GNAT version 3.05 for MS-DOS is now included. This is a _full_ Ada 95 compiler and binder and now supports tasking. Version 3.05 depends on djgpp version 2, which is a much improved GCC for DOS providing much more robust virtual memory management. GNAT 3.05 can be seen as a maintenance update to GNAT 3.04. It fixes bugs but does not add functionality. The installer script (install.scr) is updated to reflect this change. - Improved and extended versions of the AdaCAPS (DOS) and AdaIDE (Windows 3.1) editor/development environments. If you picked up acaps215.zip from the fifth release (with GNAT 3.04) nothing has changed in AdaCAPS except the version-number references in the documentation. However, the AdaIDE is a new version, adaide24.zip. - A very nice Ada 95 VGA Graphics package (vgapck05.zip) by Jerry van Dijk. This is an update to vgapck04.zip, and includes several nice demo programs, including one that draws a Mandelbrot set. - Copies of several main user manuals are in the directory as separate documents: ez2load.doc, adacaps.doc, and adaide24.txt. The next two items were included in the fifth release; nothing new. ------------------------------------------------------------------ - A new release of David Wheeler's Lovelace, a free Ada 95 tutorial in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). A copy of the Cello HTML browser for Windows is included. - GW-Ada/Ed, the Ada 83 compiler/interpreter, is no longer a part of the "official" distribution, because we want to concentrate on Ada 95 tools. GW-Ada/Ed will remain available in a subdirectory at the GW ftp site (see details below), and the GW installer will continue to provide an option to install GW-Ada/Ed correctly. Included in the ez2load kit are: ------------------------------- - a menu-driven installer program - GNAT (GNU Ada 95 Translator) for DOS, an Ada 95 compiler that runs under djgpp (GCC for DOS) and provides a complete implementation of Ada 95. A basic djgpp distribution is included in the kit and installed along with GNAT. The initial version of GNAT was created by a team at New York University. Subsequent development of the system and ongoing support is provided by Ada Core Technologies. Report GNAT bugs to report@gnat.com. - AdaCAPS (Ada Computer-Aided Programming System), an interactive development environment for GNAT. The editor provides full support for multiple re-sizable windows (overlaid or tiled), mouse and keystroke interactions, and single-keystroke invocation of GNAT compilation, binding, and execution commands. Ken Price of Priceless Software, Pepperell, Mass, is the author of this very nice IDE, which has the "look-and-feel" of a Borland "Turbo" product. - a set of simple DOS command-line commands, gcompile/glink/gexecute, which allow new GNAT users to do simple compilation and linking operations, and to execute programs in an environment that produces an automatic traceback in case of an unhandled exception. These commands are invoked by AdaCAPS but can also be run from the DOS command line. Charles Kann and Mchael Feldman are the authors. - a fast hypertext Ada 95 Reference Manual. The hypertext RM can be invoked from GW-GNAT, AdaCAPS and AdaIDE or used as a stand-alone program. The author is Arthur Vargas Lopes. - AdaTUI, Ada Textual User Interface, a binding to PD Curses and a demonstration textual user interface builder package. The author is Alden Dima of GWU. - VGAPack, a set of Ada 95 packages supporting VGA graphics. Jerry van Dijk is the author. - AdaIDE (Ada Interactive Development Environment), an IDE that runs under Microsoft Windows 3.1, with the "look-and-feel" of a Microsoft "Visual" product. Errol Martin and Don Overheu of Canberra, Australia, are the authors of this IDE. - DRGEN - a tool which allows programmers to easily generate driver programs for unit testing Ada packages. This tool was written by Allan Parrish and David Cordes. - Lovelace - A hypertext Ada 95 tutorial by David Wheeler. It includes the Cello web browser. - Ada-Tutor - a shareware package by John Herro, providing computer-aided instruction in Ada 95. This is an excellent package for those wishing to teach themselves Ada 95. - GW-Ada/Ed, an integrated Ada 83 environment that provides an excellent way to get started with Ada. This system incorporates an editor, compiler and virtual-code interpreter, and a very useful multi-window runtime monitor. Several directories of interesting example programs are provided, including some nice programs to demonstrate Ada's multitasking capabilities. Based on NYU's Ada/Ed compiler, GW-Ada/Ed was developed by Charles Kann, GW doctoral student, and Arthur Vargas Lopes, a GW graduate now of Porto Alegre, Brazil. As mentioned above, GW-Ada/Ed is no longer an official part of ez2load, but will remain available if you wish to acquire it. If you acquire the GW-Ada/Ed files, the installer will install it for you properly. All components are free except for Ada-Tutor, which carries a shareware fee if you decide to keep it and use it. Acquiring ez2load by anonymous ftp: ---------------------------------- The ez2load suite is available in these directories: ftp://ftp.gwu.edu/pub/ada/ez2load (The George Washington University) ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/ez2load (New York University) ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/languages/ada/compiler/ez2load (Public Ada Library) as well as multiple sites that mirror the above. Here are all the files to copy from the ftp directory: README - This readme file ginstall.exe - Program to do the install from a hard disk. dinstall.exe - Program to do the install if you use diskettes. install.scr - This script files gives options to the install program. unzip.exe - Info-Unzip, used to unzip distribution files. (pkunzip will NOT unpack this distribution properly) README.DSK - A readme file to explain how to use this distribution to make a diskette distribution. adatutor.zip - Zip file containing adatutor. gnat3051.zip gnat3052.zip gnat3053.zip gnat3054.zip djgpp200.zip - Zip files containing djgpp and GNAT acaps215.zip - Zip file containing AdaCAPS and the GW-GNAT support programs. adaide24.zip - Zip file containing AdaIDE drgen.zip - separate zipfile containing DRGEN adatui.zip - separate zipfile containing AdaTUI vgapck04.zip - separate zipfile containing VGAPack The following files are available in the subdirectory pub/ada/ez2load/gw-adaed: adaed1.zip adaed2.zip - Zip files containing GW-Ada/Ed. Download the first six files, and any or all of the zip files, into a "clean" single directory of your choosing, then change to that directory and type "ginstall". The complete zipped distribution occupies just under 13 megabytes; the complete unpacked and installed distribution requires about 40 megabytes. To get an idea of the individual unpacked pieces, just download ginstall.exe and install.scr and run ginstall. It will tell you the approximate installed sizes of the various components. You need an MS-DOS computer with an 80386 or better CPU; 4 megabytes minimum RAM, 8 mb preferred. Hardware floating point is required to run programs that use tasking or delay statements. For a more detailed description of the package, please read ez2load.doc, available in the ez2load directory. Electronic Discussion Groups Regarding GNAT ------------------------------------------- GNAT is discussed on comp.lang.ada. There is also a mailing list.

Its available at: http://www.cs.washington.edu/home/voelker/ntemacs.html or ftp - ftp.cs.washington.edu /pub/ntemacs Version 19.34 is out, but I'm running 19.33 and its pretty good. Its not a windows editor. Emacs is a Unix editor ported to NT. Use it along with the Ada mode lisp functions (available from nyu) and it works pretty well with GNAT.

There is only so much description that can be put in a tag line :) The emacs "Emacs compatible" claim is only keyboard look and feel. I don't support the lisp backend to emacs that lets emacs do almost anything. But for a Zeus exe size of 800 KBytes I don't think there are many things (in terms of a programmers editor) that emacs can that Zeus can not. There may even be a few things that Zeus can do that emacs can not :) > to install the EMACS Ada mode stuff?? In terms of Ada support, Zeus will highlight ada keywords, run the compile in the background and provide in edit error navigation (I am assuming this as Zeus has no trouble running TASM, MSVC++, BC++, DJGPP C++ compilers and a host of other command line compilers and tools). Please don't flame me on this. Editors are very personal things and who is to say one editor is better than another. I personally use Zeus in Brief mode as I find Brief the best editor for software development but this is only one of many opinions on the subject.

If you're using Windows 95/98/NT, get hold of Emacs-NT. I'm not sure of the URL, but it's at George Washington University. You should get Version 20.x (whatever's latest) which comes with ada-mode which is very good. If you can't find the right place using a search engine, email me and I'll send you the URL. >A pretty printer utility would be useful, too.

Emacs, of course. It comes with an ada-mode, which will do formatting for you. And you can't beat the price. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 20+ messages in thread
