2 questions:

1. Is there an Ada for NextStep that uses the OO features of the OS? 

2. I just started learning Ada, and despite my initial reaction to the 
complexity, I'm finding it to be a 'good' language ('good' is defined 
here as 'I like it!').  However, it still is fairly complex, and I need 
some sort of learning resource that I can also use as a reference.

Can some of you send me your recomendations?  I'm very good at picking 
up new paradigms of programming; C++ took a couple of minutes and Forth 
took only a few months.  I currently know (in order of enjoyment) Forth, 
Intel Assembler (sorry, not for the Pentium), Pascal, Icon, Objective C, 
C++, C, and Basic.  If it helps, I also know Fortran '77, but I hate it.

I'm willing to print something up if I need to.

Thanks in advance!

My bookstore doesn't have any Ada books (and only about 5 C++ books), 
while my school library is even worse.

Sorry for giving this like an essay assignment; I just got out of a 
difficult semester.

I'm going to be gone for a good part of December, but I should be able to 
pick up 'most any posts on this newsgroup when I come back-- nonetheless, 
email is easier to keep up with.
