Has anyone in Apollo Land used the Alsys Ada compiler which was validated
for Apollos last November?  We are wondering:
  (a) if it uses the standard Apollo language interfaces so that Pascal,
      C, and Fortran routines could (1) be linked to an Ada program
      or (2) other programs could call Ada routines;
  (b) if you can use the Apollo symbolic debugger on Ada programs;
  (c) how the speeds of compilation and execution compare to other
      Apollo languages;
  (d) whether the package fits in nicely with the Apollo environment, or
      you have to work in a separate "Ada" environment which cuts you off
      from some of the Apollo features (the DM for instance).
Anyone have any experience to relate?  The person I talked to at Alsys
(617-890-0030) gave me the price ($3095 for the first node) but didn't
know any of the above technical trivia.
