The first thing you must do is learn how to ask questions on the newsgroup properly. Start a new thread with a proper subject, don't append a reply to a completely irrelevant thread about how to write OS level stuff using GNAT. The second thing you must do is to say exactly what system you are using, both the machine and operating system and compiler. The third thing is you should read the documentation. For instance if you are on a PC using GNAT, you need to read what the users manual has to say about character sets in this environment.
