 Yes, there are about 5 for sale in the USA.  I maintain a list of language
translation products available on UNIX as part of my job here at the
Unisys UNIX Portation Center.  I keep posting the information, but it gets
tiresome to see the same questions popping up over and over again.
 Is somebody willing to maintain a 'frequently asked questions' file for
comp.lang.c or comp.lang.misc?  If so, I will forward my list of language
translators ONCE MORE ONLY!

 Please tell me about it when it is done.

Microsoft BASIC, DG Business BASIC, Thoroughbred BASIC, VAX BASIC Plus.
