I have the newly released 2.1.0 version at work. Its very good. It
handles the Apex naming convention (i.e., *.1.ada & *.2.ada) just fine
if the GNATbench project's .gpr file specifies it *and* if the
internal Eclipse file association preferences are updated to associate
the .ada extension with the GNATbench Ada editor (in addition to .ads
and .adb).

Documentation is installed along with the plug-in and is available via
Eclipse's Help -> help Contents menu.
