I would be tempted to answer XEmacs (see http://www.xemacs.org/), but all this is a matter of taste and I don't want to start another religion war :) If you want to pretty-print your Ada code, you should consider downloading a2ps (whose home-page is http://www-inf.enst.fr/~demaille/a2ps) which is a multi-purpose highly-configurable pretty-printer (and even much more). Moreover, it's free software :) Sam -- Samuel Tardieu -- sam@ada.eu.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

AdaGIDE in the GNAT distribution for Windows NT/95 has a pretty printer. I haven't tried it. -- - Stephe ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Surely not better than emacs but with comment colouring, block comment in/out and indent/unindent: EDIT.EXE at: http://www.unine.ch/math/Personnel/Assistants/Gautier/Gaut_FTP.htm It is in AD.ZIP archive, too - same URL or ftp://ftp.gwu.edu/pub/ada/ez2load/ -- Gautier ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
