It generates ada code (after installing libgtkada2-bin). However now I don't seem to have the gtkada libraries installed because gnatmake is not finding gtk.ads. I assume it is meant to be in /usr/include/gtkada. As for the different versions of Glade - I was after something that would generate the GUI code to which I could then add the relevant event handlers (I think Glade calls them signals). If Version 3 has moved on from that then maybe I had better think again. Is there a package I can download using apt-get that will install the gtkada ada libraries? Or do I have to compile the libraries from the gtkada libre site? https://libre.adacore.com/GtkAda/ I'm a bit concerned about that because following the second path is how I got into strife the first time around.
