Great Idea Oliver !=20

ANTLR v3 is, in my opinion, the way to go, since ANTLR v4 is unduly complex=
 for a regular language like Ada.

But the target language of the ANTLR generator in the GitHub repository is =
C++... Why not generate an AST for Ada in Ada ? Many Ada compilers are writ=
ten in Ada, in fact.

Kind regards,

Vincent
