I'm prepared to do this, if we can agree.

I would fork your repo, and make changes/distribute from there.

I propose an alire.toml,  on these lines:

   name = "pragmarc"
   ### needs to be in lower case

   description = "Utility library"

   version = "4.0.0"
   ### you have 4 releases on Github, the current code is the 4th, I
   ### believe. The release needs to be in this form; I did think about
   ### e.g. 2024.03.23, that might work

   authors = ["Jeffrey R. Carter"]
   maintainers = ["Simon Wright <simon@pushface.org>"]
   maintainers-logins = ["simonjwright"]
   licenses = "BSD-3-Clause"

   website = "https://github.com/jrcarter/PragmARC"
   ### is there a better one? if not, this should probably be to my fork

   tags = ["utility", "library"]
   ### what should this list be extended to?

   [build-switches]
   "*".Style_Checks = "no"
   ### alire's style checks disagree violently with your usage!

   "*".Ada_Version = "Ada12"
   ### this is what you specify in the code
