There has been a tool with more accumulated experience (not quite
10 years) and it marketed by Softool of Goleta, CA. (805 area code).
There are at least 4-5 others, but I don't think the majority
run on Unix(tm).  But then, I don't either language (`Si' inclusive)
is truly portable.  Just easily ported.

Philosphical thought for the day:
	Is Fortran as important as "sliced bread?"
	If it is and Unix is the "Fortran of OSes" [Winter Usenix
	1986], then is Unix as good as sliced bread?  I think yes. ;-)
