didn't matter much because I can type the words in with any case I want.  I
could even type it in with all caps and then run it through some sort of
pretty printer.  Whalla!  "reading" satisfaction.

If you use emacs with ada-mode, you can type in all lower case and have the
desired
capitalization created automagically.  If you want some words in all caps
(e.g., acronyms
like IO and TCP) you just put them in an emacs case exceptions file, and
they just happen.

Others are better qualified than I to answer this.

What has been solidified in the new version?

It's still there, but I prefer emacs, so that my "IDE" is uniform between
Windows and UNIX
environments.

How's the word wrap?
