Can anyone direct me to source code for a FORTRAN preprocessor?
RATFOR and EFL are probably the best known, but if you have
another favorite, I would be happy to hear about it.

Public domain code in FORTRAN would be most useful.  Code in
RATFOR or EFL is also OK, and code in C would be better than
nothing.  Information about commercially distributed products
is also welcome.

Addison-Wesley used to distribute code from "Software Tools"
by Kernigan and Plauger on tape, including RATFOR.  The book
is still in print, but the tape is no longer available from
the publisher.  I imagine this code must be essentially public
domain by now.  Does anyone know where it can be found?

Code for RATFOR in C was posted to comp.sources sometime in
early 1988.  For portability reasons, this would be less
desirable than FORTRAN code, but any pointers to its current
whereabouts would also be welcome.

Thanks in advance,
