	We at Rutgers are currently in the process of eliminating
one of our DEC-20 machines.  The problem is that we now have to
convert many of our users' APL workspaces to another machine.  We
are moving to a Pyramid (running 4.2 BSD) and plan to use DYALOG
APL.  Does anyone out there have any experience in transferring
workspaces to other machines and APL versions?  I am particularly
interested in any APL programs that you may have that allow you to
move workspaces from one implementation to another.
	Both the DEC and DYALOG versions of APL have workspace
transfer programs but they are intended for use for transferring
from one DEC machine to another (or one DYALOG APL to another).
Neither program works on the other machine unfortunately.
	Can anyone help?  I would greatly appreciate it.
