I am not a programmer, rather I am an English teacher.  However I have been 
thinking of doing a few things.

There is a program called Whitakers words, it is a Latin-English dictionary 
program written in Ada.  It runs in the Dos command prompt.  

I currently have my machine running the Windows exe version in Wine and it runs 
perfect.  It is not a very complicated program at all.  

I noticed that there was a Linux and FreeBSD version but neither of these 
version run in my install of OpenSolaris for some reason.  They both ask for 
something called ld-linux.so.2.

So I downloaded the source code from users.erols.com/whitaker/wordsdev and am 
not wondering how I can compile this so that it will run natively in Solaris in 
the terminal.  If I can get it run in the terminal, it would mean (I hope) that 
I could copy and past to it and from it and that would make my work a lot 
easier.

thanks for any help you all can give me.

I have netbeans and sunStudio, should I use those, and if so, ...  How do I use 
those?
