It looks really spiffy. A major step forward for Ada programming. I seem to have had problems with project files - partly by having GPS apparently remember or modify things I didn't want. (Hard to describe reproducible circumstances - except it kept wanting to insist on a "default" project until I shot the project file in the head and started over.) One thing that *did* seem to be a reproducible problem was that it kept complaining about a "Pretty_Printer" package name in the project file when attempting to recompile some main program - until I totally eliminated it and shot the original file in the head and rebuilt the project file under a different name. Is the Windows Registry thing somehow involved? Despite these startup problems, it looks like a really cool thing. A really large step in getting a development environment for Ada that is competitive with those available for C/C++/Java. It exceeds other environments in many ways. Y'all should be very proud of the product. I'd like to see it integrated with a GUI builder such as GtkAda - is that in the works?
