Unless you know a lot about Emacs Lisp, XEmacs won't teach you very
much about Ada directly.  However, there is an Ada-mode, which will
provide syntax highlighting (called "font-lock" in Emacs for
historical reasons), syntax-directed editing (for example, moving over
or selecting an expression bounded by balanced brackets), and
"one-touch" compilation.

If you have a full installation of packages (in particular, the "ada"
package, but it probably depends on others) simply editing a file
named according to the "usual" conventions for Ada sources should
invoke Ada-mode.
