I learnt Ada here at the university on UNIXes with gnat compiler and
VAX/VMS with DEC ADA 83 compiler. I've tried Aonix compilers (95&NT,
Sparc/Solaris). I enjoyed the DEC ADA compiler, and it's my favourite.
(ADA license is needed)
We had only one problem: as I know, DEC Ada95 is available only for AXP/VMS.
