Add in Ada-mode, presto: - Drop down menus and mouse support - Context sensitive help - Colour hilighting - autoindenting - template expansion - Check-in/out of source (revision control) - Multi-window/multi-frame development - Cross-referencing and automatic subprogram index - Switch between spec and body with a single command (and it will build the body from the spec if none exists!) - Invoke compiler in editor (and step through errors) - much more to list! And, of course, it's free :-) -- Frustrated with C, C++, Pascal, Fortran? Ada95 _might_ be for you! For all sorts of interesting Ada95 tidbits, run the command: "finger dweller@starbase.neosoft.com | more" (or e-mail with "finger" as subj.)
