The GNAT coding style is pretty much my favourite, and there's a
switch which enforces it (although it's not a supported use of the
compiler). When Prof Dewar finally writes his "everything you always
wanted to know about Ada that you never found in any of the other
books" tome I hope he states the style rules he works to. To me
reading the GNAT source code is a bit like reading a really good
O'Reilly book, part of the pleasure is just in the layout.
