The AJPO has commissioned a project through it's ATIP program to
have an Ada to C shell developed.  The shell interfaces to an existing 
GKS implementation that's written in C but to the Ada programmer, it's
meets the GKS Ada binding.

Previous attempts at using existing pure Ada implementation of GKS were either
met with the bindings not matching the GKS Ada standard or a much too limited
support of peripheral devices (printers, plotters, etc.)   This effort focuses
on using an existing commercial package that supports over 250 devices.

Suggest contacting the AJPO for more information.
