Professor Feldman, thanks a very great lot for this extremely useful
information and advice.

I will certainly check the book by Lopes. (And write one myself
someday :-)

(I recall you dearly as the reviewer of my first published Ada
paper:-)

I know jGRASP well and I will probably use it. (It was mentioned
briefly in the thread before, now lost somewhere in the 100 messages)

/*
AdaGIDE has a few quirks, cannot handle paths containing spaces, and I
cannot find how to pass options to the compiler (I need the -gnatW8
switch to write in Unicode, I don't understand why this is not the
default behaviour of GNAT, of all tools actually, but that's another
story)
