We have used GKS/Ada on a PC successfully as the basis for a "Learn
by Doing" Ada course where the students go through the 2167A life cycle
(producing portions of the document as they go) to produce an aircraft
flight simulator on the PC using Ada and GKS..
The GKS we used is called "MicroGKS" and we used the Alsys Ada
compiler. The vendor of MicroGKS is Geri Cuthbert, Illumination Systems,
Inc. Contact her by phone (407) 723-8961. If you decide to use
MicroGKS let me know and I'll tell you more. If you happen to be in
Palm Bay, Florida (February is usually nice weather) you are welcome to
stop by and try it out.
