Hello,

This is what I'm doing:
Ada.Strings.Unbounded.Append(Result,
  Ada.Strings.Unbounded.To_Unbounded_String(
    Ada.Characters.Latin_1.LF));

And this is the error that I'm getting:
$ gnatmake -g ada_in_string.adb
gcc -c -g ada_in_string.adb
ada_in_string.adb:16:61: no candidate interpretations match the actuals:
ada_in_string.adb:16:104: expected type "Standard.Integer"
ada_in_string.adb:16:104: found type "Standard.Character"
ada_in_string.adb:16:104:   ==> in call to "To_Unbounded_String" at
a-strunb.ads:97
ada_in_string.adb:16:104:   ==> in call to "To_Unbounded_String" at
a-strunb.ads:94
gnatmake: "ada_in_string.adb" compilation error

What threw me for a loop is that when I look at the Append procedure
documentation, it turns out that it should be able to take an input of a
Character type.

Not sure why I'm getting this error...
