About a few months ago I was looking through a few anonymous FTP sites for Mac software and I stumbled across an Ada compiler called MiniAda and even since have been kicking myself for not downloading it right then. Does anyone know what I'm talking about, and if so, would you happen to know where I can get ahold of it? I'm taking a file structures class this semester and we're using Ada for it. Anything is better than software development on a VAX, and I don't want to have to resort to Augusta on DOS. JT Internet: bayers@hub.cs.jmu.edu or help_jt@vax1.jmu.edu

If this is the MiniAda I know, its probably not what you're looking
for (I helped write it way back in '84). It was used to compliment
a compiler writing class at Univ. of CA, Irvine. It used a very
limited subset of the language and essentially allowed students
to view the various tables and internal mechanisms of a compiler (like
the symbol tables and state machine for the lexer.)
