I don't mean writing .. >from C anyway. Can I link DJGPP with Ada? That might be a temp solution. There was a DOS/DJGPP version of Gnat one upon a time. Its probably still floating around somewhere. The most recent version I could find was 3.10p at ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat/private/old/ez2load/3.10/ . I don't know if it can build programs that don't need DOS though. I'd be really interested in finding out myself. If you find out the answer, please tell me here or at my telepath address. --- T.E.D. homepage - http://www.telepath.com/dennison/Ted/TED.html home email - mailto:dennison@telepath.com
