Correct me if I am wrong, but passing command line parameters is *VERY*
implementation specific (I am assuming Ada83).  I assumed "A.15" is a
reference to appendix A in the ARM.  But, that was not what I found
there.  Could someone please point me to the language (Ada83 or Ada9x)
this applies to and where in the ARM it it.
