 * I use Ada extensively, and would like support for it in Crayon. If I can offer
   any assistance, please let me know. Thanks!

 * I’ve forked the repo. I’ll take a whack at adding it. Hopefully you’ll see a 
   pull request in a week or two. Thanks!

 * Thanks, I’ll keep a look out! I try to highlight as generically as possible in
   the language file rather than compile lists to reduce the number of files and
   improve maintenance. E.g. mark all capitalised words are constants rather than
   have a long list of existing capitalised constants. For keywords and statements
   however I use lists.

 * Maybe it is still of interest, i’ve spent a few minutes:
    [crayon-lang-ada](https://github.com/antiphasis/crayon-lang-ada).
   Surely it is not that perfect, but it is working…. See an [example](https://www.antiphasis.net/programming/ada/crayon-tests/)

 * Thanks, I’ve added Ada as a submodule, so any changes you make can be automatically
   merged into Crayon: [https://github.com/aramkocharyan/crayon-syntax-highlighter/commit/182fc7827da7d36badcd2393a932610ff4d7eba9](https://github.com/aramkocharyan/crayon-syntax-highlighter/commit/182fc7827da7d36badcd2393a932610ff4d7eba9)
