I usually get it from http://www.gnat.com or ftp://ftp.cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat. The 3.07 pre-compiled binaries that are there work fine on my machine, which is Slackware '96 (I believe the relevant system versions on my Linux box are kernel 1.2.13, gcc 2.7.2, binutils 2.6.0.2, libc 5.2.18). If you have a more recent distribution of Linux installed (like I have on my other machine), like RedHat 4.2 or 4.3, you can use the 3.09 pre-compiled binaries that are out there on the same site. I believe this requires elf Kernel 2.0.x or newer, gcc 2.7.2.1, binutils 2.6.0.2, libc 5.3.12). Don't quote me on these versions, since I'm doing these from memory. See the readme's in the source distribution for the exact information. Just wanted to save you time on downloads across the pond if possible. In fact, you may find a faster connection to one of the mirrors listed at http://www.gnat.com/mirrors.html If you want some examples, you'll also want to download gnat-3.09-src.tar.gz and unpack the subdirectory gnat-3.09-src/examples. Once you've installed everything correctly, running 'gnatmake hello' in the examples directory should build the hello world-type program contained therein. Happy coding!
