Since most of my serious development is Unix-based I feel no desire to fight GNAT on this one, lower case is good (though I have to say my GPR file names tend to mixed case, strange psychology no doubt). It is Very Annoying to find that somebody has used mixed case file names so that the project won't build on Unix .. I have to say that GPS's editing environment seems very immature compared to the latest (supported) emacs ada-mode. But we have programmers who would rather fire up Notepad than drop their file into GPS (does it do drag-and-drop?), let alone GLIDE! Other bits of GPS aren't so bad (sorry, ACT, lots of folk on the team do like GPS, I must be hidebound or something). -- Simon Wright 100% Ada, no bugs.
