Hi!  I've got lots (~= 20,000 lines) of beautiful C code written in Turbo
C on a 386-box that I need to port to SunOS 4.0.3 on a Sun 4.  My problem
is that I've used ANSI-style function declarations and prototypes, which
(I don't think) SunOS's standard C compiler and/or C pre-processor will
take.

What I'd like is a filtering program that will do the following:

[It sees the following prototype:]
extern struct foo	*bar(char *a, int b, struct foo **c);

[It outputs:]
extern struct foo	*bar();

[It sees the following function declaration:]
struct foo *bar(char *a, int b, struct foo **c)
{
	/*
 	 *	Some code
	 */
}

[It outputs:]
struct foo *bar(a, b, c)
char		*a;
int		b;
struct foo	**c;
{
	/*
 	 *	Some code
	 */
}


			Any pointers??

			Thanks,
