You don't have to put it there, and surely you don't--and should not--"learn" Ada from how a compiler manages its files. There is absolutely no black art with Ada. Everything you need to--and shoudld--know is fully documented. Usually you create a directory for your files, and work there, invoke the compiler from there, and the compiler finds your units there. If the compiler does not find the standard units then it is not well installed. > the book i had was from a library so there's no CDrom with > it and it's really old (1985) > Adacraft looks good. for the meantime, i'd just have to read up and be > versed with the packages to use or create so that i can learn further. Yes, use an uncrippled resource.
