Joshi) Organization: Princeton University, NJ Lines: 16 Hello, Just a (hopefully useful) note on pascal to C translators : How does the beast you have perform when the pascal program uses variant records and passes them around as parameters ? I have found that most translators break on this. There is a translator that is rather large (it actually parses the Pascal program completely and then produces a C program based on the parse tree) which is very good. It was released to the net by Pat Bergen (?) of Hollistic Technologies. Yous should try that. It however translates standard Pascal (ISO I think) to K&R C. -- Amit Joshi BITNET | Q3696@PUCC.BITNET USENET | {seismo, rutgers}\!princeton\!phoenix\!asjoshi "There's a pleasure in being mad... which none but madmen know!" - St.Dryden
