Not that I'm aware of. If you want to write graphical applications for X-Windows then you need a binding to either X itself (ie. Xlib), or a toolkit (ie. Motif, GTK, QT etc.). X-Windows is a scary and mystical place, where men are men and Orcs have 18 HD each[1]. Don't go there. There are bindings to Xt and GTK that I'm aware of, there's RPMs available from http://www.gnuada.org KDE itself doesn't, AFAIK, provide any graphical capability in and of itself, but builds on top of QT, and there isn't an Ada binding to QT AFAIK. - Aidan [1] RPG joke, sorry. -- "I say we just bury him and eat dessert" http://www.skinner.demon.co.uk/aidan/ OpenPGP Key Fingerprint: 9858 33E6 C755 7D34 B5C5 316D 9274 1343 FBE6 99D9
