Hi all happy Ada prose authors,

I am seeking for some pointers, basic advices, about creating a custom  =

runtime for GNAT.

That's basically for a kind of toy for me: a minimal bootable environmen=
t  =

in which I will mainly play with some assembly and run some experiment. =
 =

However, I will also need a minimal environment, like a minimal text  =

editor and a minimal terminal emulation, among others fundamental stuff,=
  =

and don't feel OK doing this in either assembly or C. Note that I am not=
  =

announcing a new OS in Ada, I'm not that silly, that's just planed to be=
 a  =

toy for some personal experiments.

Any pointers welcome. I am not expecting anyone to do the stuff for me, =
 =

just pointers.

I find this:
http://www.iuma.ulpgc.es/users/jmiranda/gnat-rts/index.htm
While not sure that's what I need, and above all, it seems outdated (GNA=
T  =

3.15p is from the medieval times of GNAT).
