I was once a CP/M fan. I am still having the Apple CP/M Ada compiler
in 5.25" diskette. I dont' know if the diskette is still readable or
not (it has been almost 20 years which I started to have the diskette
in mid 1980s). I don't know what Ada compiler it is.

I can still remember faintly the compiler messages:

lexical analysis++++++++
semantic analysis++++++++++++

something like that. Any idea which Ada it was?
