By this weekend (time allowing) I'll try it on Meridian's AdaVantage on the Macintosh under Mac Programmer's Workshop. (Does Meridian have an unfair advantage here?) If time wasn't an issue, I'd even alter the "windows" output to show pictures of your favorite Ada gurus and Chopstick graphics being passed around a table... Please advise if you have any reservations about using this code and it's "portability claims" in a classroom or consulting setting. I think it's: (a) cute, (b) interesting, and (c) [with a little explanation] convincing.
