While Robert is correct that gnatinfo.txt has some great information,
the command lines for compilation using gnat for DO$ is

gcc -c 'your_file_name_goes_here'


There are a miriad of other switches with which you can compile, best to
read the referenced readin material to get a grasp onn them all.  To
link your Ada program, you'll need to type

gnatbl 'filename'

where 'filename' should be substituted with the name of your main
program.  Again there are some switches you can use which are outlined
in the reference reading material.  Good luck, read the group often for
more useful information!
