I am new to this group and hope there to be an archive that
contains what I need.

I am working on building an environment allowing one to
convert C/NeWS code to ADA/NeWS.  I have an environment
that works, but I am looking to clean things up and 
increasing the speed of execution by using more 'features'
of ADA.

My questions then are:
	Does an ADA package exist that defines the "standard"
	UNIX (BSD 4.3) system calls?

	Does an ADA package exist that defines the "standard"
	UNIX (BSD 4.3) library calls (i.e. strlen, printf, scanf,
	etc.)?

	I understand that someone was working on an ADA version
	of printf but was waiting for a paper they had writen
	on the subject to be published.  Has this paper been
	published and is printf available?

	What about a version of scanf?

Thanks in advance.
