No, I don't know of any. So I just started to write my own. But this
turns out very complex, so I won't promise to ever finishing it. I already
have concepts for many of the tougher stuff, but don't see the light at
the end of the tunnel.

The times before I already did these conversions several times by hand.
Saving a Basic program as ASCII and then using an editor with some
search and replace runs does already 50 % of the job. The rest though
is tougher...
