I apologize if this question has been kicked around before, but I didn't
know until today that I would have an "opportunity" to do this kind of
work.

Has anybody had experience in translating a FORTRAN program to an
"equivalent" Ada program.  I don't think that I'm interested in
an "automatic" translator since this is (supposed to be) a one time
shot.

I guess I'd be interested in any "rules of thumb" that folks have
developed that will make this less painful.

Thanks,
Joe
