Jean-Marc,
Of course I RTFM first. I said I was a newbie to Ada, not a jerk. (lol)
Below is the entire section on Wide Text Input-Output(A.11) from the RM.
It is not very useful, IMHO. Frankly, I thought there would be more
after hearing of Ada's robust language definition. Now I'm not so sure.
Apparently this is not the trivial problem I thought it was. As a Ada
newbie it makes me wonder about Ada's capabilities for program
internationalization. In our internet age that is important.

A.11 Wide Text Input-Output
The package Wide_Text_IO provides facilities for input and output in
human-readable form. Each file is read or written sequentially, as a
sequence of wide characters grouped into lines, and as a sequence of
lines grouped into pages.
Static Semantics
The specification of package Wide_Text_IO is the same as that for
Text_IO, except that in each Get,
Look_Ahead, Get_Immediate, Get_Line, Put, and Put_Line procedure, any
occurrence of Character is replaced by Wide_Character, and any
occurrence of String is replaced by Wide_String.
Nongeneric equivalents of Wide_Text_IO.Integer_IO and
Wide_Text_IO.Float_IO are provided (as for Text_IO) for each predefined
numeric type, with names such as Ada.Integer_Wide_Text_IO,
Ada.Long_Integer_Wide_Text_IO, Ada.Float_Wide_Text_IO,
Ada.Long_Float_Wide_Text_IO.
