At the DECUS symposium in Nashville that concluded last Friday (1-MAY-87)
there was a BOF session on a DEC BASIC+ to unix C translator. As I recall
one of the people who attended the session said that the translator worked
100% for BASIC+ and something like 95%-98% for BASIC+2. I believe my source
told me that the translator was the product (read $$) of some company in 
England. I can scrounge through my criptic notes and at least get you pointed
in the right direction if you are still interested.
