Seems kind of awkward to insert into the original file and then need a
special tool to use this information.

Gnu Emacs Ada can run verdix in a shell, parse the output, and use this
info to place the cursor in the correct file at the right place or even to
lookup the error explination in the ADA language reference. If also offers
syntatic editing on the fly.

Like most good end user software, this is free.
