Sure (Note however that this demo requires only VESA 1.2 or 2.0, no 3D 
graphics; the 3D -> 2D projection is done by the software).
Well, I've tested something simpler ( http://excel-writer.sf.net/ ) and 
it works straightforward (modulo getting the 8.3 names):
(in non-DOS, or a DOS with LFN):
   unzip -j excel_writer_03
(in DOS):
   copy *.ad* src.txt
   del *.ad*
   gnatchop src.txt
   gnatmake exouttes
   exouttes
That's it - using /current/:  v2gnu/ada432b.zip, v2gnu/gcc432b.zip, 
v2gnu/bnu219b.zip, v2/djdev203.zip.

Probably, if you are ask on c.l.a. you would get ideas of other projects 
for testing. If you really want to have fun you can test with the full 
Ada Test Suite http://www.ada-auth.org/acats.html 8-}...
