If you installed everything in the default locations, there's a
section in the super-secret documentation (the GNAT for Windows NT:
User's Guide) that describes all this at
file:///C|/GNAT/Documentation/gnat_ug.html#SEC185 . If you need to find
this document again, it should be hidden in your start menu under the
program group "Gnat Ada95 Compiler. But don't tell anyone I told you.
