If so, which package? Alternately maybe someone knows a short-cut to get %26 where 26 could be replaced with a number in range 33-126, into it's actual character representation; %26 is actually the '&' character. %26 corresponds to 16#26# ( hex). Just looking for 'tricks' and short-cuts to do this.

I've written some small extensions to Emacs pcl-cvs (aka pcvs). In particular, I have one function called cvs-dtrt, for " do the right thing" :). Given the pcl-cvs display, it invokes the appropriate action for the file under the cursor, or prompts the user if there is more than one. A minor function, but quite a productivity boost.

What do you mean here under "constructor"? A constructor in the sense this word is used in C++ should be definitely primitive. Initialize in Ada is also primitive, though it is not a full constructor in C++ sense. ... Why so? I buy a little inconvenience of overriding it in rare cases where the base could do the job. BTW, when and if Ada will have true user-defined constructors, then I think we should seriously consider a requirement to override them in each derived type, in all non-trivial cases, like when an... - Sat, Oct 16 2004 12:25 pm 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/4a5bab72e3ac47fc Literate Programming in Ada, AdaDoc, AdaBrowse - 4 new ---------------------------------- ...
