GNAT goes to a lot of trouble to place error flags at just the right
column when it can. If you are new to the language, I would suggest
using the switch -gnatv when compiling GNAT, that way (assuming you
are working just with ASCII input and output, and not with a fancy
IDE/editor etc, you get error messages that clearly show where
they are pointing to.
