[comp.lang.fortran] Convert binary rep. of floating pt. numbers from IBM to VAX?

henkel%nepjt@ncsuvx.ncsu.edu (Chuck Henkel) (06/16/90)

I need to convert IBM's binary representation for floating point
numbers into VAX format, and vice versa. The binary data is being
written onto an unformatted file:

OPEN(UNIT=9,FILE=RESTRT,STATUS='NEW',FORM='UNFORMATTED')

The "IBM" is a 3090, and the "VAX" is a VMS machine. Can anyone point
me toward some software that will do this? If I have to write the
conversion code myself, any suggestions?
