It is kind'a hard to write Linux or Unix stuff in Ada, becuase the Posix
Ada binding do not seem to work well or even documented. The Posix Ada
bindings for linux (there is now even an RPM for these for Linux!) do not
have an API document to tell one how to use them to write the sort of stuff
you are talking about.
