+<h4>Adapad</h4>
+
+<p>Git repository: <a href="/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/adapad">Link</a></p>
+
+<h5>8/5/2017</h5>
+
+<p>The Ada binding for FLTK has now been moved to its own <a href="/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/fltkada">
+repository</a>. Installing it is required to build and use Adapad, naturally. Both repositories are
+set up to use the GNAT Project Manager build tools to handle all that, with any further specific
+details in each project's readme.</p>
+
+
+<h5>2/1/2017</h5>
+
+<p>I have a soft spot for the <a href="http://www.adaic.org/" class="external">Ada programming
+language</a>. Strong typing, built in concurrency, readable syntax, systems support, real-time
+support, a general culture of correctness and emphasising reliability... what's not to like? I also
+have a bit of an interest in <a href="http://www.fltk.org/index.php" class="external">FLTK</a>,
+being one of the more prominent tiny graphics toolkits around. Adapad is a notepad clone born as a
+side project from efforts to create an Ada binding for FLTK.</p>

+</div>
+
+<p>It was modeled after <a href="http://tarot.freeshell.org/leafpad/" class="external">Leafpad</a>,
+and the feature list is similar, currently comprising:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Cut/Copy/Paste</li>
+ <li>Unlimited Undo/Redo</li>
+ <li>Select All</li>
+ <li>Find/Replace</li>
+ <li>Jump To</li>
+ <li>Word Count</li>
+ <li>Word Wrap</li>
+ <li>Line Numbers</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>This is approximately what I was going for. However, at the current time of writing it is still
+considered to be at v0.8 due to a few minor issues, such as the horizontal scrollbar appearing even
+when only vertical scroll is possible. That may be an FLTK issue, but that's not an excuse from an
+end user perspective.</p>
+
+<p>The FLTK/Ada binding currently occupies the same repository as Adapad, but will be moved to its
+own as work progresses.</p>
