Is there a library of Ada bit manipulation functions somewhere?
Thanks.

Can you be more specific about what sort of bit manipulation you want to
do? Some bit manipulation is built into the language. For example, a
packed array of Booleans has "and", "or", "xor", and "not" built in.
Also, modular types have these operations.
Extracting bit fields from words can be done by declaring a one-word
record with a pragma Pack, or a record_rep_clause.
I assume you want something else...
