Hello I'm quite new to Ada95. Have started reading John Barnes:
Programming in Ada 95.

I have read (think it was on the net) that one can bind Fortran and
Ada95 together. Does anybody know if one can use Fortran 77?

I have a calculation program written in FORTRAN 77 and want to just
make a graphical interface to it so that it will be easier to do
calculations. I want to use Ada95 and GTK+. So I'm wondering if
anybody know of a working example for the Ada95 - FORTRAN 77
connection (don't have to be any GUI) that I could look at?

Thanks in advance.

PS: Ada's verbose syntax threw me back first time I looked at it (a
year ago or so), but after meddling a bit with C++ I see why verbose
is better. Also I didn't get GNAT the compiler working on Linux back
then, now it works like charm :-)
