Hi,

I'm taking a programming course, using Ada 95, and I've played with VB
and C++ before.  In Visual Basic I could use some pre-defined
subprograms to control key strokes in real time (as they happened, as
opposed to after the <Return> key has been pressed): KeyDown, KeyUp,
KeyCode, stuff like that.

How do I do this in Ada ?  I just need sort of a starting point where
I can look for the info.  I have a beginner level book that's pretty
good but doesn't touch this topic at all.  I couldn't find anything
either in the online help I have.

What is "GNAT" ?

All I can say about the compiler I use is what the "About" box shows:
ObjectAda for Windows V7.1.105 (special edition)
