Many thanks for all the replies. I'm sold on the move to Ada. Given
that i) Ada is platform gnostic and ii) Ada will be available on at
least one platform for most of my working life I'm confident that I'll
have easy access to a working Ada compiler for many years to come.
This is very comforting. And I do like the look of Ada code. So, the
big conversion begins (and yes I will be using p2ada as a workhorse
but with lots of little sed-scripts to assist).

Cheers,
Leo
