The currently is no standard Ada binding for Xlib or the X toolkit,
although various standards bodies are investigating this.  You probably
won't see a useable draft standard for more than a year, though.  Until
then, you can use the Digital VAX bindings or the Ada-over-C shells
produced by various organizations.
