This is not a matter of semantic, this is a matter of being handy for  
human beings.

By the way, using overlong file names instead of directory, is not even  
suggested by the ARM, this is just a GNAT convention. Using directory  
would not break Ada semantic, you will just replace “.” by “/” or “\”  
instead of “-”. As to reply to someone previously on this thread, if this  
the difference between Ada and Java was really just about using overlong  
file name or directory to present files to the user, I would start  
wondering a lot. Using directories would not turn Ada into Java.
