I would be tempted to answer XEmacs (see http://www.xemacs.org/), but all this is a matter of taste and I don't want to start another religion war :) If you want to pretty-print your Ada code, you should consider downloading a2ps (whose home-page is http://www-inf.enst.fr/~demaille/a2ps) which is a multi-purpose highly-configurable pretty-printer (and even much more). Moreover, it's free software :) Sam -- Samuel Tardieu -- sam@ada.eu.org
