Does anyone know of a program which will convert Pascal
source to C? We have quite a few applications written in
Pascal and since we are going to a policy of Fortran or
C only we must somehow convert them. Please reply E-Mail
as I don't read all these groups.

It's on the latest EUUG tape, distributed at the EUUG Spring Conference
in London (April 1988), and now available through euug-...@cwi.nl
It is named "ptc", and written by (information copied from the README file):

I have never had occasion to use it, and this computer hasn't installed
it, but it's right there in my manual (Umax, Ultrix, or Unix, they
all list it). Any reason nobody can find the program? I can't.

Green Hills Software (818-246-5555) has a translator.
It does not handle nested procedures, and the resulting C is not maintainable.
I have not tried it, and do not recommend for or against it.

There is a company called Maritime InfoSystems which sells a very good
Pascal to C comversion program. They will also convert your code for
you at a price. My information is dated July 1, 1986 so I don't even know
if they are in business anymore. Anyway here's their calling card:

Maritime Infosystems Ltd.
6660 Reservoir Road
Corvallis, Oregon 97333

He's not! He got a job as a sysop in New Zealand.

But he was just reselling the TGL Pascal-to-C Converters. You can
get more info by writing to:

TGL, Inc.

What dialects? UCSD, MS, MT+, Metaware, Intel, Apollo Domain, and Turbo.
If it's not on the list, call anyway.
