Hi All,

in my Ada books I find the with-clause "with BASIC_NUM_IO; use 
BASIC_NUM_IO".

The following program

with basic_num_io; use basic_num_io;

procedure test_ranges is
begin
   put_line(short_integer'size);
end test_ranges;

does not compile because the compiler complaints that the package 
"basic_num_io" does not exist.

Is there a replacement for this package in GNAT? How can I print number 
on the screen instead?

Regards

Georg
