Why RM deprecates at the same time delay and terminate alternatives in
selective accept? I propose to add this (just remove from RM the thing
which deprecates it).
It is quite natural to terminate a task namely at the time when it
waits as when it waits it is of high probability not in "mid-way"
state.
I encountered this in a real soft. Well, I did without this by somehow
worse (less reliable as the structure of rendez-vouz became more
complex).
P.S. It is a simple (slow, somebody may work to make it faster) and
somewho partial emulation of DOS SVGA graphics (svga.ads/svga.adb)
in a GTK+ window (Linux, other Unixes, Windows etc.) Do you need
this code?
