Does any one know of a filter command that would allow me
to take nice ANSI function prototypes ala:

	main (int argc, char *argv[])
	{
	 ...
	}

and turn them into the older format:

	main (argc, argv)
	int argc;
	char *argv[];
	{
	 ...
	}

It would be especially good if the program worked in either
direction.

(I'm porting from MS C 5.1 into XEN*X/UN*X.  MS C knows about
function prototypes.  Neither the XEN*X nor UN*X compilers do.
No flames.  No judgements here.  I just need to be able to
move between the two formats.)

Thanks in advance.
