I'm working on a MIS project to be hosted on PC using MS-DOS
and Ada. Have Alsys PC286 Ada Compiler.

Does anyone have experience on printed output to standard 
government forms.

I'd prefer to write directly to the printer, but I could live
with having to write to a file and then printing the file.

I had hoped that Ada's Text_IO would have the capabilities 
Turbo Pascal has for directing output directly to the printer 
using Write and WriteLn? (And I'd hoped for direct keyboard
reading as well like someone else on the net in recent days.
Something like Turbo's "Read (kbd, X);".)

I am desperate for examples of source code and some expert
advice on this oneand would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks,
