Along with that, I'd recommend the "hyperbole" hypertext package -- also
an emacs extension -- from wilma.cs.brown.edu:pub/hyperbole.  This will
allow you to structure your source code, documentation, tests, design
documents, requirements documents, etc. as a hypertext with links from
one to another.  Possible uses:

 - trace forward and backward from requirements to design to code to test

 - click on an identifier in the code and see its definition or
   references to it in the documentation.

 - structure documentation like an on-line HELP system, with point-and-
   click indices, cross-references, etc.

 - call up graphic editors to see requirements or design diagrams.

emacs and hyperbole have quite a bit of support for invoking programs; I
wonder if we could integrate GNAT with them?

Ada Mode for Emacs

[chris.danx]

Hi,

I'm having a spot of bother with Emacs and since I don't know if it's ada
mode specific I thought I'd ask here rather than gnu.emacs.help (there are
ppl here who use emacs IIRC).  The problem is that when TAB is pressed it
won't indent further than the previous line, and won't allow lines to be
indented of my free will (indentations can be decreased but not increased).

I did some digging and found an option

Emacs->Editing->Indent->Tab Always Indent

which controls the global behaviour.  This is non-nil and works for non-Ada
files.  I haven't tried editing files for other languages, so I don't know
if this is Ada mode specific.  Does Ada mode override this setting, or is it
a more general programming setting?  I've tried fiddling with the Ada mode
settings a little, but to no avail.  Also looked through most of the
customisation settings, but might have missed it.

This is most annoying since it doesn't allow information to be formatted in
a neat way, comments in particular:

e.g.

-- author:        Bob
-- date:          7th June 2002
-- last modified: 7th June 2002


The alternative emacs is currenlty imposing just looks silly.  Any ideas?

Your apt to start a war (or maybe I am) talking about editors, but
Emacs is the best for Ada!

You need to download the Ada mode for Emacs. It can be found at:

http://libre.act-europe.fr/

Once you have this, Emacs will do all the formatting for you,
perfectly! Places that you want to format with comments such as:

Put_Line ("Short"); -- Just demo
Put_Line ("Much longer than prev line"); -- Long

your right, tab will not indent. You will have to use your
space bar, but this is better because a space is always a space
no matter what your editor or platform, therefore your comments
will always align.

Once you get the mode, remove the Always Indent feature you
enabled and watch Emacs do what it's best at.

Someone once said: "Great minds think alike" :)

I'm not saying I have a great mind but I'm with ya :)

My favourite Emacs features:
----------------------------
-integrated make/context-sensitive compiler error output opening up the
buffer with the selected compiler error
-the best global multi-file search and replace system using tags files
-pretty formatting
-beautiful two-up/four-up postscript printing
-context-sensitive word completion
-elisp macros/elisp macro debugger
-multi-buffer 
-multi-window
-multi-level undo
-multi-clipboard for pasting any previous copy cut
-the best bookmark facility ever to date
-the built-in info facility(the only thing missing is a smarter info
search engine facility dare I say � la old MS-DevNet 1992 gui search
facility).

Dream emacs features:
---------------------
UML/round-trip engineering � la Rational Rose from within emacs.  
IMHO UML diagrams are very productive for team-communication.
It would be interesting to have some fashion to represent the
interaction/sequence/fsm... inside the actual source code instead of
having
to have a separate model files as necessary with products such as
Rational Rose.
Also, it would be interesting to see a console-based character gui for
representing/editing uml diagrams and generating ada-source.
Obviously this would imply once finished doing your uml design, you
could regenerate your ada-source 
and generate high-quality postscript uml diagrams and documentation.
IMHO, and correct me if I am wrong, the Rational Rose documentation
generator is still not the ideal
since actual diagrams are pasted as contents into the MS-WORD documents.
What this means is every time you change the model, you need to
regenerate the entire WORD document which could take very long for large
models.
IMHO the proposed solution would use a different .ps file for every
different diagram and then checking the DTG of the source file � la make
against the actual UML diagram/document to build would yield a more
efficient solution.  That solution blasts away the COM/OLE moniker
necessity IMHO 
which Rose doesn't use anyways for its UML diagrams.  Instead of using
DCOM/OLE monikers or pasted METAFILES(Rose does this), cvs ssh/nfs
mounted file systems do the trick even if the file system is remote. 
That blows away most of the complexity of using DCOM/OLE :)

All-in-all gnat Ada-emacs is where I am most happy developing stuff
after having done some ada/java/c++/c on different os's and different
machines.

And 
- remote editing (ange-ftp)
- edit directly content of .tar, .tar.gz and .tar.bz2.
- read mail
- read news
- shell (far better than the standard Windows shell)
- keep session (restart Emacs and it open all buffers and place the cursor
  at the right position)
- integrated VC + PCL-CVS (version control at the same level as dired mode)
- search/replace in multiple files
- hightly configurable
- ...

I know that a lot of editors does part of that, but I do not know another
editor that support _all_ of these features.

This is of course completely off topic :)

I agree that it's more difficult to format comments (you could I guess
say "M-x text-mode" to go to text mode, "M-x ada-mode" to go back to
the Ada way? not tried ..)

However, having been using ada-mode and cc-mode (well, most
programming modes) for quite a while now (not sure how long, 6 years?)
I find the way they behave so very helpful that I'm prepared to put up
with the minor inconvenience of comment formatting of the sort you
describe.

I think you will get more help on a emacs news group.

In the "old days" when I used Emacs (before converting to vim) I seem to
remember that one of the modes had a function that overrode this the
indentation. I think the macro was tied to Ctrl-Tab or sth and it put in
spaces in stead of a Tab character. So that in the case above one just
press Ctrl-Tab to jump to the place where the name should be written.

If there isn't such a macro I guess some at a emacs news group will give
you one in two seconds time :-)

I have it already, it comes with emacs 21.2.1 or has there been an update

Yes but most of the editors I use have soft tabs, and that's the way I like
it.  Emacs is customisable so in theory I should be able to get the same
behaviour, unfortunately in practise lack of knowlege of elisp prevents me.

I don't see how that would help, but I'll try it anyway... ok tried it
didn't work.  Emacs on windows says tab isn't implemented, don't know about
Linux.

I suppose what I want is:

Soft tabs (i.e. spaces)
soft tabs that always work!
auto indentation.

emacs does auto indentation in ada mode already, so all it needs are soft
tabs that always work when tab is hit.

Ctrl-Q before any keys, and the key is interpreted as-is.

Have you tried Ctrl-q tab ?  This gives me a tab while in ada-mode.

Not sure what comes with Emacs -- 21.1 certainly comes with an Ada
mode modified by Emmanuel Briot of ACT, but it's very very hard to
tell which revision it is since the CVS revision headers get mangled
somewhere. It's later than adamode-3.5, that I can see!

The libre.act-europe.fr site may well be more up to date.

The behaviour you want is implemented by the function

tab-to-tab-stop

So you need to bind that to a key in ada-mode. I suggest S-tab or
C-tab, rather than tab itself:

(define-key ada-mode-map [C-tab] 'tab-to-tab-stop)

As others have pointed out, the "standard" Ada-mode tab function is
extremely useful in normal code. Give it a try, you'll like it
eventually :).

:(  That doesn't work.  It says "identifier not found" when C-tab is pressed
when there's no identifier and "no cross-reference available for reserved
word" so I'm guessing C-tab is redefined elsewhere.

M-tab won't work on Windows since M is alt and alt-tab is switch between
tasks/programs within Windows, S-tab is assigned to untab.

I reassigned s-tab to tab-to-tab-stop to test it, but it gives "not
implemented"!  Assigning it to another sequence "C-x\C-g" (which is free)
just gives a ping sound each time it's pressed (no text in the minibuffer)
:(  This is maddening!

Sure the default will be ok, if the other tab (c-tab/s-tab/whatever) will
there when it's really needed (or rather wanted).

Actually, these are currently the same version. I know the headers are
modified, that's something I modify next time I am updating the Emacs CVS
repository, so that at least it is easy to compare. Basically, there shouldn't
be any need to install the ada-mode from libre.act-europe.fr, unless you are
using an older version of Emacs.

There have been some bug fixes, and a few minor enhancements in the development
version of ada-mode, mostly due to ACT customer's input, but nothing major,
which is why there are so few updates of the ada-mode.

Thanks Chad. I was looking very hard to do a tab in ada-mode. I just

I am using 20.4 and I downloaded ada-mode from ACT website. It was a 
confusion of the version and I needed to hack the ada-mode so that it 
worked with 20.4. And now, it is 21.1!!!

I've got a solution using a macro:

(fset 'danx-space-indent
   "\C-u3 ")

(global-set-key "\C-c\C-t" 'danx-space-indent)

It's only going to used in Ada mode (or modes that don't insert actual tab
characters) and sparingly, so as not to break tools that expect tabs.

Ah. Yes. You need to run the "define-key" line after ada-mode is
loaded, so it is run _after_ the default ada-mode key bindings.

You do this by using eval-after-load:

(eval-after-load "ada-mode" '(load "ada-mode-keys"))

Then put your key bindings in the file ada-mode-keys.el. Make sure
this file is in a directory on load-path.

Hmm. I don't know where that message is comming from.

Yes, C-g is _always_ "abort key sequence"; you cannot use C-g in any
key sequence.

Yes. Emacs can be very confusing and frustrating, until you get used
to it.

Since we have drifted far from Ada, I suggest we take this off line;

To answer this question, you can "quote" TAB. 
When saving the buffer is untabbified, i.e. an appropriate
amount of spaces takes the place of the tab character.
C-q as a prefix.

It doesn't work for me either. This is exhausting! Guess I will have 
to stick with ^Q tab for a while. :(

My problem is that every time I'd like a specific feature I don't have
time to delve into elisp and hack around, so....would anyone who happen
to have a nicely commented .emacs, which works farily well with both 
emacs and Xemacs, be willing to share their file[s] with equal minded?

Regards,

Are you aware that the XEmacs lot have changed their default init file
fairly recently?

No, look at Stephens other post.  I didn't reply to it on cla since Stephen
thought it'd be better taken off cla since it was more emacs than Ada which
is fair enough.

Stephens instructions will give you a tab character (I think, will double
check) instead of spaces, which isn't exactly the behaviour I wanted (still
playing around with the options to see if it does spaces, I know hitting
delete makes it jump back to the previous tab stop -- which you need to edit
from 3 to 60 say).

In the meantime I defined the following using Stephens instructions as a
guide:

; this goes in a custom file (e.g. ada-mode-keys.el).
;
(fset 'danx-space-indent
   "\C-u3 ")

(define-key ada-mode-map [C-tab] 'danx-space-indent)


; this goes in your .emacs file or default file
; (which I can't find).
;
(eval-after-load "ada-mode" '(load "ada-mode-keys"))

That gives "^@" as text here.

Nope. I am not.

I would love to share my .emacs hack with everyone in cla who has 
interests in it. My hack is not neat and nice. Just quick and dirty. 
Improvements are very welcome.

Yeah, put it on your path (e.g. in the same directory as the programming
modes, think it's called progmodes).

It won't clash with ada-modes.el, except that it redefines C-tab to have a
different behaviour than what it usually has (hence why it needs to be
loaded after ada-mode is loaded).

Ah - having looked at:

http://www.xemacs.org/Architecting-XEmacs/init-files.html

perhaps I'm a bit premature on that one, but it looks confusing
anyway!

Well, I find hacking on Emacs to be a nice reminder of why I like Ada :).

My Emacs stuff is available at
http://users.erols.com/leakstan/Stephe/emacs/index.html

It works with Emacs 20, and I'm upgrading to Emacs 21 (not on the web
site yet). I _don't_ use Xemacs, so you're on your own their.

As for nicely commented, _I_ can read it :).
