I agree whole heartedly. But doesn't the C compiler require .c? This is
indeed stupid. IMHO, you should be able to say: ada sourcefile and the
compiler should look for "sourcefile" first and then "sourcefile.ada" next
(i.e. you could have your own naming conventions. Also if you said
sourcefile.ads then the compiler should look only for sourcefile.ads. This
allows you to have a breifer (?) command syntax if you want (i.e. ada
sourcefile compiles "sourcefile.ada" if "sourcefile" doesn't exist) and
allows you to override this either by having no .ada suffixed file or using
you own suffixes of your own choosing.
