First of all: GLIDE will work fine with ntemacs 20.7.1. I know,
it's what I use all day :-)

The problem is that the GLIDE source distribution is geared
towards unix systems. But installing the NT version is quite
straightforward.

1. install GNAT.

2. Install emacs

3. unpack the GLIDE sources in a temporary directory

4. modify the glide.bat file so that GLIDE_BASE specifies
     your emacs installation directory

5. compile the glideint program ('gnatmake glideint')

6. compile the glide_gui program ('gnatmake glide_gui')

7. copy glide.bat, glideint.exe and glide_gui.exe to your
    emacs\bin directory

8. copy the following files to your emacs\site-lisp directory:

      ada-mode.el
      ada-prj.el
      ada-stmt.el
      ada-support.el
      ada-xref.el
      cua-mode.el
      glide-debug.el
      glide.el

9. Create a shortcut on your desktop to the glide.bat file in
     the emacs/bin directory. You can pick an icon for it from
     the collection you will find in the emacs/etc/icon directory.

10. double click on the shortcut to start GLIDE.

       (side note: the GLIDE tutorial and documentation can be
        found in the GNAT documentation package)

      in GLIDE, press 'Alt-X', and on the command prompt
      type 'ada-mode'.

      Now type 'Ctrl-X d', and on the command promt type the
      path to your emacs\site-lisp directory.

      You should now see a directory listing containing the .el
      files you copied before. Move the cursor to each .el file and
      press 'SHIFT-B' to byte compile it.

That's it. Press 'Ctrl-x Ctrl-c' to exit GLIDE, and you are all set
to start using glide.

Success,
Jerry.
