I recall seeing mention of a program which would translate sh to C. I don't recall where or when or anything. Has anyone else heard of this? I have a sneaking suspicion it's a commercial product, but a look through a couple of issues of various UNIX magazines didn't turn up anything. -- Lyle sendmail.cf under construction, pardon the From: lws@comm.wang.com (or, uunet!comm.wang.com!lws) (508) 967-2322

Subject: Re: shell -> C Since mail outside HP seems to bounce back a lot, I'll post the address: Comeau Computing 91-34 120 Street Richmond Hill NY 11418-9886 These people have a product, ccsh, that compiles shell scripts. Since they support a large variety of platforms, I assume they parse to c, then use the local c compiler. I've never used it, so I don't know. If anybody has any experience, I'd like to hear about it. This is not an endorsement, nor does it necessarily reflect the opinion of HP management. Walter Coole "Objurgate Sesquipedalianism."
