Classic ADA is no more ADA than C++ is C. I think it's time to dust off that old joke about Fortran (what language will we be using in the next century? I don't know, but it'll be called Fortran!) and bring it up to date: What languages will the DoD be using in the next century? I don't now, but they'll all be called ADA! -- _--_|\ `-_-' Peter da Silva. +1 713 274 5180. . / \ 'U` \_.--._/ v
