Hello,

Yes, for the little work I have done until now, I have tryed many options
and libs ... The most interesting I have seen is GtkAda (at least, it's
faster than AdaTk). But AdaTk is much more easier, and I have not many
time to do the work...so maybe I'll finish doing it with AdaTk (or, if
finaly I'm not able to draw it as I want, doing the work in C)...

: Not that I am aware of. But it _is_ a tantalizing thought... an AdaGraph
: based upon Xlib, so it would offer basic drawing capabilities, independent
: of the presence of specific tools, libraries or windows managers... Hmmm...

It will be VERY interesting; you know Ada is very used on Unix community
(specially on OS teaching), and I think an adagraph port will be very
attractive... Think about it :)

Many thanks,
				Toni
