I am looking for information on PASCAL to Ada Translators. If anyone
has any experience in this area or knows of a translator (homegrown or
other), please send me email corcor@cccc.com.

I tried posting this but it bounced.
I have tried using two different translators, the freely available Ralph
Ebert's, and Intrepid Technology's.
Ralph's worked ok for the most part but would die on records. A small fix got
it over the worst of the problems, but it would still crash when dealing
with other records (I haven't informed him of the problem yet!).
Intrepid Technology's was quite professional and worked just as it
should most of the time. There were some errors, which they said they
would be able to fix.
Overall it did about 90% of the work for us, the rest of the time
was spent in fixing up things that were Vax Pascal dependent (such as varying
strings, calling external routines etc. -these were flagged in the Ada output).
However it died on an _extremely_ big case statement (part of an assembler).
It is certainly better than doing it by hand, or rolling your own translator.
