  [snip]

The source for the original Ada-95 manual was not Scribe-like but was
Scribe. Two different header files existed, one to produce the ARM and one
to produce the AARM (Annotated ARM). Scribe supports macros, and these
header files had complex macro definitions to achieve the desired effects.

The last time I checked, maybe six or eight years ago, Cygnet was
supporting Scribe processors on a variety of platforms.
