AdaSockets is a medium binding (it is not a thin binding because it uses Ada
types and not a thick binding because you have the same subprogram names as
in C) for using BSD-style sockets in Ada.
Since the original release, I have been adding multicast and fixed some
bugs. However, it is likely that others remain.
To use AdaSockets with gnatmake once installed, type:
$ gnatmake $(adasockets-config) ...
The `adasockets-config` part will add the correct options to gnatmake command
line.
