Great. Thanks.

ARGH. I tried building GtkAda, but I didn't get very far because the Gtk
test program failed to link;
	configure:1703: gcc -o conftest -g -O2    conftest.c   1>&5
	configure:1695:21: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory
	configure: failed program was:
	#line 1693 "configure"
	#include "confdefs.h"

	#include <gtk/gtk.h>
	#include <stdio.h>

	int main() {
 	return ((gtk_major_version) || (gtk_minor_version) ||
(gtk_micro_version)); 
; return 0; }
[ from config.log]. Well, obviously gcc doesn't find gtk/gtk.h, as nobody
has told it where it's itstalled - the problem is that the output of
'gtk-config --cflags' is missing from command line.

I'll give up on this for today, I think...

I know. The reason for trying to install from source is that I want to try
to make some minor modifications
- which could be fun as it's been 5 or 6 years since I wrote any Ada code.

I might just do that...
