But I hope you first tell your customers that they would be better off translating to Ada95, and possibly using the Intermetrics compiler that targets C if they don't have an Ada compiler available. Otherwise, this line of work seems to be the software equivalent of hawking cigarettes. Sure your customers may outright demand it. But you're not exactly doing them or the world a service by giving it to them. It would be interesting to see this move towards being an actual compiler like the Intermetrics one, though. -- T.E.D.
