Well, actually, Ada does not have 'display procedures'.
What you are probably trying to use are Text_IO procedures,
which address structured text files.
As you are on windows, get the nt_console package from my
homepage at http://stad.dsl.nl/~jvandyk, this should do
what you want.

: which allow single stepping and tracing, watches etc. ??
As you will find out, debugging tools are much less needed with Ada than
with languages like C and C++. Nevertheless, if you are using the ObjectAda
compiler, it does include such a debugger. If you are using the GNAT/AdaGIDE
combination, download the debugger from the same site you got GNAT.
Success,
Jerry.
