    I'm looking for a fortran to C translator, and would like to hear
from someone that has used one.  A few of the desired facilities are:
	1) Ability to replace nasty computed goto's, arithmetic goto's,
	   etc into something reasonable.  Some of the source is extremely
	   poorly written, and it would be nice is the translator could
	   at least make a start at untangling it.
	2) Ratfor, f77, and f66 input (some source is old).
	3) Ability to handle source spread out over many files.
	4) Site license available (for a bunch of Suns).

I have some information on C77 (Intrinsic) and fortrix, but the examples
they give are so trivial that its hard to make a judgement.  If there
are any others out there (preferably a little cheaper than $5k) that might
meet some of these requirements, I'd like to hear about them as well.
Please respond to me directly, I'll summarize if anything turns up.
