Hello 

Thanks for the hints. I downloaded the newest version of adaopengl and
installed it into /usr/home/karim/ada/adaopengl-0.10
I have read the README text file, and there is written to change the
Make.conf and to adapt it to the system. I changed nothing, because I
thought it was o.k, and I don`t have enough experience to understand
each parameter.
I tried to run the make file in the examples/adaglut dir, but got an
error :

gnatmake: error, unable to locate gnatgcc 
*** Error code 4 

1.There exist no command for gnatgcc on my system , but I  have
installed the gnatport for FreeBSD  on it. Can you help me with this ?

2.I cannot imagine how to use the bindings, does they works like
libraries ?

3.You are right. It seems that it is not that hard to write a simple
ada opengl application to open a window, but how can I compile it with
gnat ??  (What is the exact console command to compile a basic opengl
or glut source ??)

4. Is there a lib to load images (textures) with ada ?? (I don`t think
that mesa/GL are shipping one.)

greetings 

Karim
