Lately I've found the combination of Emacs(XEmacs), Ada-Mode, and the LRM
to be awsome tools in my endeavor to learn Ada95.
The thing I like is being able to have open a compiler buffer/error
message window, a source window/buffer, and a LRM buffer. It allows me to
reference the LRM for each error message I get when attempting to
compile, and hence allows me to go back and edit the source code
according the rules set out in the LRM.
I havent had to open a debugger in several weeks.
I'm curious, will Ada-Mode work with Emacs21?
Also, does Ada-Mode provide a facility for automatically cross-referencing
compiler messages with the relavant language documentation?
I didnt find any mention of this in the Ada-Mode docs(perhaps I'm
missing it.) If not, would other programmers find this feature useful?
I could implement that feature and then submit it for perusal should
anyone be interested. If someone else doesnt beat me to the punch. ;->
Any comments would be helpful.
Note: I spend alot more time with my Ada textbook than I do with the
LRM. I find the LRM to be a useful reference tool.
