> [As an addendum -- I used DEC Ada and preferred it in some ways over Gnat.  Error messages are the main thing that comes to mind.  DEC Ada didn't just give you the error message but cross-referenced it to the specific LRM paragraph(s) that dealt with the situation.  Very helpful.]

Compilers using AdaMagic as their front end frequently
reference the LRM in error messages. Now that SofCheck,
maker of AdaMagic, has joined AdaCore, maybe GNAT will
more frequently do so, too, rather than just re-using
LRM terms in disguise, as in

"invalid prefix in selected component"

This error message is not about the component.
