If it refuses you something, it means you didn't run the gnat310.bat initialisation batch-file (add "call gnat310.bat" in autoexec.bat e.g.) which sets the variables to run GNAT (ADA_INCLUDE_PATH etc.)... gnat310.bat is generated by installation program (ginstall.exe). NB: Ada "includes" are rather called specifications; they are not just texts pasted like headers in (macro-)assemblers but are checked by compiler to be conformant with the body part... > Anybody care to tell me where i can locate an *ahem* 'real' > package? So don't search too far... the new GNAT/DOS 3.10 has just been released @ ftp://ftp.gwu.edu/pub/ada/ez2load/ > :-) Also (the off topic question), how could i detect multiple > keypresses in my keyboard handler? thanks in advance! Do you have a 16-bit method via interrupts or in/out ports ? In that case you could try to translate to GNAT/DOS via dpmi library calls. See SVGA pack as example for start... -- Gautier -------- Homepage: http://www.unine.ch/math/Personnel/Assistants/Gautier/Montmollin.html Software: http://www.unine.ch/math/Personnel/Assistants/Gautier/Gaut_FTP.htm
