Trying to remember my programming experience on VMS - 6 years ago...
So, IIRC, you have to
1/ create a library (once) and set it (each session),
    must be "acs lib create", "acs lib set"
2/ (once) compile each file (say xyz.ada) of your project with "ada
xyz.ada";
    this should include it into the library, or else there is an ACS
command for that
3/ each time you want to recompile something (unit uvw), "acs comp uvw"
does
    the job, with recompilations of depending units when necessary.

Of course the "help" command, from prompt or from acs, will help you...
