What about a tool that goes the other why around ? Ada to Pascal ?

> Hello. Recently G. A. Craig Carey (mostly) and I reworked P2Ada, a

> P2Ada is now able to translate large sources. Depending on

> the rework after translation have been significantly reduced.

> Two recent "success stories":
>   - porting of MAS (Modula-2 Algebra System, 73 kSlocs)
>       by using Mod2P and P2Ada
>   - porting of the Numerical Recipes in Pascal.
>
> Bugs fixed: a lot!
>
> Some of the new features:
>
> - Support for Sqr, Odd, Eof, Eoln, Read, ReadLn, Ord, Chr (standard
Pascal)
>      and type Double
> - For Borland integers, a transitional package is provided.
> - Turbo Pascal 7's CONST parameters translated.
> - Set expressions better translated (in form of array of Boolean).
> - A procedure Dispose is created for each access type.
> - For variables of a structured type, P2Ada creates an ad-hoc type for
them.
> - Option to translate a "var" parameter by "var" instead
>      of "in out": it is wrong but caught by the Ada compiler for the
rework.
> - Name of procedures and functions put after "end".
> - Smarter recognition of variables (array elements, record fields,...)
> - Bigger buffers for translating large sources.
> - Added casing of Ada keywords (upper/lower/neutral).

> Enjoy!
