+@section Example of @command{gnatcheck} Usage
+
+@noindent
+Here is a simple example. Suppose that in the current directory we have a
+project file named @file{gnatcheck_example.gpr} with the following content:
+
+@smallexample @c projectfile
+project Gnatcheck_Example is
+
+ for Source_Dirs use ("src");
+ for Object_Dir use "obj";
+ for Main use ("main.adb");
+
+ package Check is
+ for Default_Switches ("ada") use ("-rules", "-from=coding_standard");
+ end Check;
+
+end Gnatcheck_Example;
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+And the file named @file{coding_standard} is also located in the current
+directory and has the following content:
+
+@smallexample
+-----------------------------------------------------
+-- This is a sample gnatcheck coding standard file --
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+-- First, turning on rules, that are directly implemented in gnatcheck
++RAbstract_Type_Declarations
++RAnonymous_Arrays
++RLocal_Packages
++RFloat_Equality_Checks
++REXIT_Statements_With_No_Loop_Name
+
+-- Then, activating compiler checks of interest:
++RStyle_Checks:e
+-- This style check checks if a unit name is present on END keyword that
+-- is the end of the unit declaration
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+And the subdirectory @file{src} contains the following Ada sources:
+
+@file{pack.ads}:
+
+@smallexample @c ada
+package Pack is
+ type T is abstract tagged private;
+ procedure P (X : T) is abstract;
+
+ package Inner is
+ type My_Float is digits 8;
+ function Is_Equal (L, R : My_Float) return Boolean;
+ end Inner;
+private
+ type T is abstract tagged null record;
+end;
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+@file{pack.adb}:
+
+@smallexample @c ada
+package body Pack is
+ package body Inner is
+ function Is_Equal (L, R : My_Float) return Boolean is
+ begin
+ return L = R;
+ end;
+ end Inner;
+end Pack;
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+and @file{main.adb}
+
+@smallexample @c ada
+with Pack; use Pack;
+procedure Main is
+
+ pragma Annotate
+ (gnatcheck, Exempt_On, "Anonymous_Arrays", "this one is fine");
+ Float_Array : array (1 .. 10) of Inner.My_Float;
+ pragma Annotate (gnatcheck, Exempt_Off, "Anonymous_Arrays");
+
+ Another_Float_Array : array (1 .. 10) of Inner.My_Float;
+
+ use Inner;
+
+ B : Boolean := False;
+
+begin
+ for J in Float_Array'Range loop
+ if Is_Equal (Float_Array (J), Another_Float_Array (J)) then
+ B := True;
+ exit;
+ end if;
+ end loop;
+end Main;
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+And suppose we call @command{gnatcheck} from the current directory using
+the @command{gnat} driver:
+
+@smallexample
+ gnat check -Pgnatcheck_example.gpr
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+As a result, @command{gnatcheck} is called to check all the files from the
+project @file{gnatcheck_example.gpr} using the coding standard defined by
+the file @file{coding_standard}. As the result, the @command{gnatcheck}
+report file named @file{gnatcheck.out} will be created in the current
+directory, and it will have the following content:
+
+@smallexample
