[comp.lang.ada] ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A on-line anywhere?

bolton@csd460a.erim.org (Mike Bolton) (03/08/91)

Greetings.  (My first post, so please forgive any faux pas.)

I have a photo-copy of ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A (Ada Programming Language),
however the quality is poor.  (Can't tell the "a"s from the "e"s.)

I'd like to find a machine-readable copy that I could print.
Is there such a thing as an on-line copy of this document?  Ideal
would be a Postscript copy that I could FTP from some site, but I'll
take anything I can get.

Thanks for any help.

Ada Language Reference Manual (LRM - MIL-STD-1815A) is available in
machine readable form from the Ada Software Repository (ASR).

It can be found in directory PD2:<ADA.ANSI-LRM).
Send an e-mail message to ADA-SW-REQUEST@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL for
detailed instructions.

If you have trouble getting into Simtel20, it is available at
ajpo.sei.cmu.edu, somewhere in the publifc ftp directory. That is
where I got it from. It's in straight ASCII. I don't think there is
a PostScript version extant (it was created before PS was!).
