Thanks all who suggested the project file solution. That sounds like
the way to go. More to learn for me 8^).

I would then have to see how this might fit into the build system
(cmake) used by the SVN gurus on this project. (The project is PLplot,
BTW.) They have been amazing in their ability to incorporate my Ada
code into their project so far, given that there are no Ada
programmers involved (except for me) and given that I know little of
cmake or SVN (commits are made for me by a guru).

The good news is that everything I have done compiles and runs
correctly on every system that they have tested it with (thanks to
help I received quite a while back from this list regarding other
issues).

Always the Ada noob,
Jerry
