NAME

       asistant - interactive command-line ASIS tool

SYNOPSIS

       asistant program

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.

       asistant  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.
