The book "GCC: The Complete Reference" will expose more GCC readers, to the existance of Ada and get the curious started in it. There is a table of contents available in the link below: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0072224053/qid=1061299321/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/103-7651020-7144655?v=glance&s=books The Ada sections are short, and the interfacing C to Ada section is very short, but at least readers will become more aware that it is there, and that it can coexist in a C world. -- Warren W.
