.SH NAME
gnatpmake \- GNAT Make with Paths
.SH SYNOPSIS
.RB gnatpmake
.IR gnatmake\ options\ and\ files
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B gnatmake
is a program to automate the compilation of Ada programs by the
.B GNAT
compiler. It uses two environment variables (\c
.B ADA_INCLUDE_PATH
and
.B ADA_OBJECTS_PATH\c
) to control the search
path for Ada sources (\c
.I .adb
and
.I .ads\c
) files, library information (\c
.I .ali\c
) files, and object (\c
.I .o\c
) files.

Directories in which these files are kept make up the GNAT Ada Program Library.

.B gnatpmake
automates the management of these environment variables by the use of
a special file (\c
.B .adapath\c
) which is optionally present in each program library directory. Each 
.I .adapath
file specifies the paths used for compilation of the library directory in
which it is found.

.SH OPTIONS
All
.I gnatmake
options are passed through to
.I gnatmake
unchanged.

.SH FILES
.B .adapath
contains a colon-separated path list.

.SH "SEE ALSO"
Documentation for
.I gnatmake
is available in Info, HTML and PostScript forms. Please see your local
administrator.

.SH BUGS
It's assumed that
.B ADA_INCLUDE_PATH\c
,
.B ADA_OBJECTS_PATH
are the same (although the initial values may be different).

It's assumed that the initial file to be `made' is in the current directory.
