Hello,

I am currently using the GNAT DOS compiler and I am very happy with the 
functionality and availability of this development system.  In fact, I
am now in the process of converting my development efforts from C++ to
Ada 9X!  However...

Before I can move to an Ada development environment, I must determine my
options for GUI support.  

1) Can the GNAT/DOS compiler generate X applications which will execute
   under MS Windows?  Ofcourse, this assumes using an X package under
   MS Windows.

2) Is there a public domain X library available for the MS Windows or
   DOS platforms?

3) Is there a MS Windows Ada Package available anywhere for creating 
   native MS Windows applications?  Has anyone ported GNAT so it can
   create native MS Windows applications?

4) Can you think of any other Windowing options which may be available
   using GNAT under Windows 3.11 or 4.0?

Thanks in advance for your help.  I'm sure lots of other ex-C++ people 
would be interested in this information too
