This User's Guide assumes that you are familiar with Ada 95 language, as described in the International Standard ANSI/ISO/IEC-8652:1995 (hereafter referred to as the Ada Reference Manual), and that you have some basic experience in Ada programming with GNAT.
This User's Guide also assumes that you have ASIS-for-GNAT properly installed for your GNAT compiler, and that you are familiar with the structure of the ASIS-for-GNAT distribution (if not, see the top ASIS README file).
This guide does not require previous knowledge of or experience with ASIS itself.

Commands that are entered by the user are preceded in this manual by the
characters "$
" (dollar sign followed by space). If your system
uses this sequence as a prompt, then the commands will appear exactly as
you see them in the manual. If your system uses some other prompt, then
the command will appear with the $
replaced by whatever prompt
character you are using.
Full file names are shown with the "/
" character
as the directory separator; e.g., `parent-dir/subdir/myfile.adb'.
If you are using GNAT on a Windows platform, please note that
the "\
" character should be used instead.
