Do you keep your sources public somewhere? Randy's source, for both the RM itself, and the Ada code that processes, is available at the above website. The RM source is in a zip file, the Ada via a CVS web interface. The Ada code currently does not include support for info output. The Ada code has changed significantly since the Ada95 manual was released, and Randy (rightly) did not keep the info producing files current. I'm updating the two Ada files to produce Texinfo output, which is then further processed by makeinfo to produce the final info file. I'll post the resulting info file on my website, and I assume Randy will also post it on AdaIC, as he did for Ada95. I'll also post the Ada files that produce the Texinfo. But they are not there at the moment. If you are offering to help in this work, we could use email, or I could post intermediate versions. Mostly I will need help in reading the final info result, to make sure I haven't gotten something badly wrong. -- -- Stephe
