.SH NAME
asistant \- interactive command\-line ASIS tool
.\"----------------------------------------------------------------------
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBasistant\fR \fIprogram\fR
.\"----------------------------------------------------------------------
.SH DESCRIPTION
ASIS is the Ada Semantic Interface Specification; it is an application
programming interface that allows Ada programs to inspect the
structure of other Ada programs. GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler, can
parse Ada source text and produce tree files suitable for use through
ASIS.
.PP
\fBasistant\fR is an interactive command\-line tool with a simple
language that allows you to inspect the semantic information about a
compiled program. Thus you can learn ASIS and try ASIS queries
interactively before writing them in your programs.
