Does anyone have a program that would convert GNU emacs lisp code to
Unipress (Gosling) emacs syntax?  Is this even possible, or are there
too many differences?  I imagine that most simple programs could
be converted.  If such a program does not already exist, could someone
tell me what is necessary to do such a conversion?  

From what I have seen, I assume that the following is the GNU syntax:

(defun NEW-FUNCTION (LOCAL-VARIABLE-LIST) 
	"STRING WHOSE FUNCTION I DON'T KNOW BUT I ASSUME IS HELP OF SOME SORT" 
	(FN1)
	(FN2)...
)

I will have to convert this to (if somebody else hasn't done it already):

(defun
	(NEW-FUNCTION LOCAL-VARIABLE-LIST
		(FN1)
		(FN1)...
	)
)

And the "defvar" function?  This is also help?  I don't need a
conversion that will work 100% of the time (this probably isn't
possible anyway), but rather something just to get me started.

Thanks in advance.
