IMHO computers can be more helpful at a level above the file system level. If you can make good use of AdaCore's GNAT library (which works with GNAT), it is probably best to ask their support whether or not they can add separate documentation. OTOH, GNAT is free software, everyone could contribute his or her thoughts about the library, its use, or its implementation. The Ada library is documented elsewhere. Doesn't a browsing style of learning a library have its counterpart in a scribbling approach to programming?
