If you look at the Language Reference Manual (the online versions have
an index where you could look up command line arguments) you'll see...


   package Ada.Command_Line...


Use it like this...

   with Ada.Command_Line; use Ada.Command_Line;

   with Text_IO; use Text_IO;

   procedure Demo is
   begin
      for i in 1..Argument_Count loop
         put (Argument (i));
        new_line;
      end loop;
   end;

Look in the LRM for how to get the program name.
