I would be very interested to find public domain source code for a program,
function, or subroutine which can do Gregorian to Hebrew (and vice versa) date
conversion for a semi-reasonable range of years (say the Hebrew years 0 to
6000, more if you aren't so sure about the legend that the world ends at
the Hebrew year 6000, just some 200-odd years hence, based on the presence
of six alephs in the first sentence of the Torah).  C or 66/77-compatible
FORTRAN would be best (to run on a vanilla SVR2 UNIX system) but hey, beggars
can't be choosy, I'll take whatever I can get.  Perhaps some of you Israeli
readers of soc.culture.jewish might be able to help?  Thanks much, _todah
m'od_ ... (email address included in .signature, or post to soc.culture.jewish
if you can't reach me by email [use usa distribution if posting from USA]).
