I wouldn't normally ask, but XML/Ada has to have separate files for building on windows and unices and this has confused me. Why can't you just have 1 makefile file for both targets? Is it some XML/Ada specific issue or is there some other reason? I want to write makefiles for Aqua, but have only one set of makefiles for both Unices and Windows but the issue with XML/Ada stuck in my mind. is it something to do with naming differences in gnat? Chris p.s. there's no problem with Unicen vs Windows line terminators since Emacs and ConTEXT support both.
