I would like to know if there is out there a translator that translates MSBASIC programs for the IBM/compatible into PASCAL, Fortran77, or C (preferably C). I am willing to pay the price of a commercial package if it exists. Please E-mail, as I do not read these newsgroups regularly. [Please reply to him, not to compilers, unless of general interest -John] The BASIC I am using is MSBASIC, the version that works with IBMs, I am also using a compiler rather than an interpreter. Please respond, because a 58K file is waiting to be useful. Thank you all.

The man to talk to is Ron Brown. We got a AlphaBasic to UXBasic translator from him which saved us literally months of work. Ron has developed many more translators for many other languages. In fact, he has been more successful writing translators lately than in selling his medical application packages (well, don't hold me to that, I may be mistaken). At any rate, his translators have been in high demand and we have given them good referrals. I don't know their address, but their phone number is: 1-303-985-9964 | Mark Steven Jeghers - the living incarnation of "Deep-Thought" | | {ihnp4,cbosgd,lll-lcc,lll-crg}|{dual,ptsfa}!cogent!mark | | ^^^^^^-------recommended------^^^^^ | -- Send compilers mail to ima!compilers or, in a pinch to Levine@YALE.EDU Plausible paths are { ihnp4 | decvax | cbosgd | harvard | yale | bbncca}!ima Please send responses to the originator of the message -- I cannot forward mail accidentally sent back to compilers.
