declaimed the following:

>When I want to know how Ada.Text_IO works, I don't look up the specification file. I don't even know where to find Ada.Text_IO on my system. I just went to look for it, and gave up pretty quickly. I could probably find it if I tried hard enough, but it's far more convenient to visit [1], which has a hyperlink to Ada.Text_IO, as well as lots of other things.

	If using GNAT, the standard libraries have "krunched" names...

C:\GNAT\2019\lib\gcc\x86_64-pc-mingw32\8.3.1\adainclude\a-textio.ads

(That's an easy one once you find the "adainclude" directory; others get
quite quite cryptic ... a-tgdico.ads for example.
