Using that reference to source files as a jumping-off spot,
let me ask a question about GNAT naming of _listing_ files
that has always puzzled me (as a non-user).

With DEC Ada, one has default/recommended source file names
for specification and body of:

	MYPACKAGE_.ADA		MYPACKAGE.ADA

and the major benefit I see from that is you can use the same
convention for two listing files that share a directory and
both can have the standard listing extension:

	MYPACKAGE_.LIS		MYPACKAGE.LIS

So how do the listing files get named by default in GNAT ?
