    This guide will help you produce better Ada programs by identifying a
    set of stylistic guidelines that will directly impact the quality of
    your Ada 95 programs.

    Contents:
    The style guide is divided into chapters that reflect the major points
    that a programmer addresses when creating high-quality, reliable,
    reusable and portable Ada software. Individual chapters are devoted to
    source code presentation, readability, program structure, programming
    practice, concurrency, portability, reusability, performance, and the
    new object-oriented features.
