A public domain Turbo Pascal to C translator is available. It is called TPC; I've seen it on several programming oriented IBM PC bulletin boards. The author, S.H. Smith (5119 N 11 Ave 332, Phoenix,Az. 85013) claims that " [the program] will do 90% of the work required to do the translation." It seems to work OK, but can't completely handle nested procedures, precedence operator differences, and VAR parameters. I/O routines have to be manually renamed. DISCLAIMER : I have no connection to Smith, do not have the source code, and can't get Kermit to upload to my local Vax.

I would think that there would be enough demand for it to warrant a posting. I'd do it myself, but I don't have a modem, just an Ethernet connection. It's probably written in Fortran anyways.

I would appreciate getting some information as to where these bulletin boards are and what the telephone #'s are. I've seen some 'Pascal to C' translators, but I have yet to see one for Turbo Pascal.

The Turbo pascal to C translator cannot handle nested procedures;
this, in my opinion, severely restricts it use. I'm not trying to put it down,
but this is a severe limitation (at least it is for me -- I take good
advantage of nested procedures).

Anyone work with a translator for translating Turbo PASCAL to any dialect of C (MSC, TC, etc.) on a MS-DOS machine? Also has anyone got any alternatives to HALO printer graphics? I am in the process of converting a program from that is currently using HALO printer graphics and Turbo Pascal into C and any other graphics driver? please reply via e-mail, if enough interest i will post a summary. thanks.
