See page 593, which says, "The GNU/NYU Ada Translator (GNAT) uses an
ordinary directory of Ada source files as an environment. Each file
contains one compilation unit and has a file name that reflects the name
of the compilation unit. (A file containing several compilation units
is passed through a program that chops it into smaller pieces, each
containing one compilation unit.)"
The chopping program is called gnatchop, and it is fully described in
the GNAT documentation.
