Wonderful. Thanks a lot.

Yes they solved that problem. I was wrong. The problem is different.
It's not the spaces, it's non-ASCII characters in file names. Still a
problem thou :-( For example I have a procedure called Função_H. The
file name appears like "funo.adb" on the file manager, and AdaGIDE
cannot build an executable. May be a problem of the OS, or of the
combination AdaGIDE-OS.
