Many of the newer sources on the net are ansi C. Unfortunately, not all of
are blessed with an ansi C compiler. Has anyone put together a reasonably
thorough translator to produce k&r C from ansi?

Some study is necessary however. You can ftp the entire ghostscript stuff from qed.rice.edu:pub/gs.

Yell at your vendor until it supplies an ANSI C compiler ... the standard has been out for a while now, there is no excuse for non-conforming compilers. Unless you're using CP/M of course :-) Nick

Along with gcc comes unprotoize - this seems to be the choice, but I have no experiences. -- Rainer Sinkwitz | E-mail: sinkwitz@ifi.unizh.ch Dept. of Computer Science | sinkwitz%ifi.unizh.ch@relay.eu.net University of Zuerich | {backbone}!mcsun!unizh!sinkwitz
