I've asked this all around our campus, and no one knows the answer, so I'm trying a little further afield... We use Alsys Ada under AIX/370. I want to read the command line arguments from my Ada program. I know how to do it in Verdix Ada, but there doesn't seem to be any information available as to how it's done in Alsys. The Verdix approach essentially mimics the C argc/argv approach. -- John Dudeck "You can only push jdudeck@Polyslo.CalPoly.Edu simplicity so far."

Anyone versed in more than 1 computing platform and professing to write portable code owes it to themselves to download the CLI.* and CLI2.* files from the PD2:<ADA.COMPONENTS> directory at wsmr-simtel20.army.mil. They provide an implementation of argc and argv for several environments, all used in the Portable Text Formatter (and other ASR routines, I'd bet!) ----- Ray Harwood |Data Basix |Associate Faculty, Voice: (602)721-1988 |PO Box 18324 | Pima Community College FAX: (602)721-7240 |Tucson, AZ 85731 |Instructor in Ada and Pascal CompuServe: 76645,1370|AppleLink: DATA.BASIX|Internet: rharwood@east.pima.edu
