Ada style guide wanted

[Joe Orost]

I would like to see a style guide for writing Ada code covering topics
like indenting, type and object naming, etc.  If you have knowledge
of anything like this, please drop me a note.


					regards,
					joe

"Ada Style Manual" was (as of fall, 1983) free for the asking from:

	INTELLIMAC, Inc.
	6001 Montrose Road
	Rockville, MD 20852
	(301)984-8000

They also had a periodic newsletter for (prospective) users of their 68000-
based machine.

I am not connected with this company.  I evaluated, and eventually specified
their product as a consultant on an RFP for IBM FSD.

I would really like one, too, because I am doing my M.S. thesis in
Ada.

Try Grady Booch's book, "Software Engineering with Ada".  Indenting seems to
be a matter of personal preference; I like the Pascal system for standard code.
I try to do select statements like:

	select
	  accept A
	  do
	    WHATEVER;
	  end A;
	or
	  accept B;
	  STATEMENTS;
	or
	  accept C;
	end select;

but that too is a matter of preference.  Do what seems right.
