The current mission is some version of "Here's the C interface - how do
I do the exact same thing only in Ada?" A thick binding might be very
handy at a little later stage in this learning exercise since I plan on
using it in a real project. Just now, I need to understand how it works
at a low level. There's also the issue of Windows sockets not working
exactly 100% identical to Unix sockets and I may need some of the
Windows specific features.

I'm presuming that the link you are pointing me at is a thick binding to
Sockets? You don't happen to have it in .ZIP format? (I don't have the
tar and gz stuff loaded here and would just as soon not bother with it
if I can use PKZIP). Thanks.
