Gautier is unhappy that there is no Ada 95 compiler running from diskettes.

Sorry, I have zero sympathy here -- why would anyone try to run any
compiler from diskettes these days -- a complete waste of time as I
see it -- and I would have been willing to make that statement ten years

ago (the original Realia COBOL could run off disketttes, but I don't think
there was a single user who found this interesting).

The idea that the much larger software components of today have no more
functoinality thatn the small ones of yesterday seems completely at ood with
the facts to me!
