Hello,

For a freeware Ada 95 compiler system, sources, editors and utilities:
  ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat
(The EZ2LOAD distribution provides editors for DOS or Windows v3.1.)

To get the FAQ's and links to most everywhere else about Ada, see:
  Home of the Brave Ada Programmers (HBAP)
  http://lglwww.epfl.ch/Ada/

And lastly, there are several books to help learn about Ada 95.  The
freeware Ada 95 Rationale is a big help.  The freeware Ada 95 Reference
Manual is useful too.  Also I use "Ada as a Second Language" by Norman
Cohen (price:~ $35).

 Cohen, Norman H.  Ada as a Second Language, 2nd ed.  McGraw-Hill,
   1996. 1133 pp. (ISBN: 0-07-011607-5)
 See http://www.research.ibm.com/people/n/ncohen/a3sl.html

Mike Feldman distributes source code examples from his newly released 
books.  I found them by the EZ2LOAD distribution of GNAT v3.05 for DPMI. 
The DPMI version works under DOS, Windows v3.1, or OS/2 in a DOS session.
