The a-*.ad? files are the standard library (package Ada and its descendants) and 
its implementation. These are well documented in the ARM, primarily Annex A. 
This is readable and the online version is hyperlinked.

The i-*.ad? files are package Interfaces and its descendants, and their 
implementation. These are also well documented in the ARM, Annex B.

The s-*.ad? files are package System and its descendants, and their 
implementation. These are also documented in the ARM, section 13.

The g-*.ad? files are GNAT-specific units. Some are for general use and some are 
GNAT internal units. Documentation is up to the compiler supplier.
