[net.lang.pascal] Wanted: Pascal to C Translator

kumar@hplabsc.UUCP (Arvind Kumar) (01/01/86)

Looking for a public domain Pascal to C source code translator,
preferably written in C. If anyone has one or knows where to
get one, I would appreciate a private mail message.

I'm also looking for the above.  I am soon going to translating
6000 lines of Pascal code to C.  Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

If you know Hannibal Smith, perhaps this is good advice:
'If you have got a problem,..., try to find the A-team.'

Hopefully more helpful is that some UNIX installations are using such a
translator to convert the TeX source from PASCAL to C.
TeX is the famous computer typesetting system by D.E.Knuth of Stanford
University. There is a newsletter ('TUGboat') published irregularly 
by the American Mathematical Society.
Unfortunately, I do not receive it myself. If my memory is still intact,
number 3 of 1985 is a good candidate to have more details.
Please don't blame me if it is an earlier issue.

Whitesmiths was selling a very workable one several years ago. I do not know
what machines it has been ported to. Source is available for a price. I don't
know if they're still in business. Plauger moved off to New Hampshire several
years ago and I haven't seen him since.
