  35 --  This procedure implements file name crunching
  36
  37 --    First, the name is divided into segments separated by minus signs and
  38 --    underscores, then all minus signs and underscores are eliminated. If
  39 --    this leaves the name short enough, we are done.
  40
  41 --    If not, then the longest segment is located (left-most if there are
  42 --    two of equal length), and shortened by dropping its last character.
  43 --    This is repeated until the name is short enough.
  44
  45 --    As an example, consider the krunch of our-strings-wide_fixed.adb
  46 --    to fit the name into 8 characters as required by DOS:
  47
  48 --      our-strings-wide_fixed      22
  49 --      our strings wide fixed      19
  50 --      our string  wide fixed      18
  51 --      our strin   wide fixed      17
  52 --      our stri    wide fixed      16
  53 --      our stri    wide fixe       15
  54 --      our str     wide fixe       14
  55 --      our str     wid  fixe       13
  56 --      our str     wid  fix        12
  57 --      ou  str     wid  fix        11
  58 --      ou  st      wid  fix        10
  59 --      ou  st      wi   fix         9
  60 --      ou  st      wi   fi          8
  61
  62 --      Final file name: OUSTWIFX.ADB
  63
  64 --    A special rule applies for children of System, Ada, Gnat, and Interfaces.
  65 --    In these cases, the following special prefix replacements occur:
  66
  67 --       ada-        replaced by  a-
  68 --       gnat-       replaced by  g-
  69 --       interfaces- replaced by  i-
  70 --       system-     replaced by  s-
  71
  72 --    The rest of the name is krunched in the usual manner described above.
  73 --    In addition, these names, as well as the names of the renamed packages
  74 --    from the obsolescent features annex, are always krunched to 8 characters
  75 --    regardless of the setting of Maxlen.
  76
  77 --    As an example of this special rule, consider ada-strings-wide_fixed.adb
  78 --    which gets krunched as follows:
  79
  80 --      ada-strings-wide_fixed      22
  81 --      a-  strings wide fixed      18
  82 --      a-  string  wide fixed      17
  83 --      a-  strin   wide fixed      16
  84 --      a-  stri    wide fixed      15
  85 --      a-  stri    wide fixe       14
  86 --      a-  str     wide fixe       13
  87 --      a-  str     wid  fixe       12
  88 --      a-  str     wid  fix        11
  89 --      a-  st      wid  fix        10
  90 --      a-  st      wi   fix         9
  91 --      a-  st      wi   fi          8
  92
  93 --      Final file name: A-STWIFX.ADB
  94
  95 --  Since children of units named A, G, I or S might conflict with the names
  96 --  of predefined units, the naming rule in that case is that the first hyphen
  97 --  is replaced by a tilde sign.
  98
  99 --  Note: as described below, this special treatment of predefined library
 100 --  unit file names can be inhibited by setting the No_Predef flag.
 101
 102 --  Of course there is no guarantee that this algorithm results in uniquely
 103 --  crunched names (nor, obviously, is there any algorithm which would do so)
 104 --  In fact we run into such a case in the standard library routines with
 105 --  children of Wide_Text_IO, so a special rule is applied to deal with this
 106 --  clash, namely the prefix ada-wide_text_io- is replaced by a-wt- and then
 107 --  the normal crunching rules are applied, so that for example, the unit:
 108
 109 --    Ada.Wide_Text_IO.Float_IO
 110
 111 --  has the file name
 112
 113 --    a-wtflio
 114
 115 --  This is the only irregularity required (so far!) to keep the file names
 116 --  unique in the standard predefined libraries.
 117
 118 procedure Krunch
 119   (Buffer    : in out String;
 120    Len       : in out Natural;
 121    Maxlen    : Natural;
 122    No_Predef : Boolean);
 123 pragma Elaborate_Body (Krunch);
 124 --  The full file name is stored in Buffer (1 .. Len) on entry. The file
 125 --  name is crunched in place and on return Len is updated, so that the
 126 --  resulting krunched name is in Buffer (1 .. Len) where Len <= Maxlen.
 127 --  Note that Len may be less than or equal to Maxlen on entry, in which
 128 --  case it may be possible that Krunch does not modify Buffer. The fourth
 129 --  parameter, No_Predef, is a switch which, if set to True, disables the
 130 --  normal special treatment of predefined library unit file names.
 131 --
 132 --  Note: the string Buffer must have a lower bound of 1, and may not
 133 --  contain any blanks (in particular, it must not have leading blanks).
