The editor supports "templates" that know the language syntax; you can type i f C-e, and it expands to "if {expression} then {statments} [else {statments}] end if;" and each of the {} [] can be similarly expanded. I don't know if GNAT Studio supports such templates. In Emacs they are called "skeletons". A better term for GNAT Studio these days is IDE (Integrated Development Environment); it has many more features than knowing the language syntax. -- -- Stephe
