How big is the program?  If it's not too awefully huge, it shouldn't take
long to convert it by hand, and I'm sure a person could do a more efficient
job than a machine.  You could likely spot changes in the program to fit your
libraries better, while the machine program would have to blindly simulate the
old environment.

If the program is too big for that to be practical, how 'bout just running
it in Turbo?  I do all my new stuff in Modula, but I have a lot of perfectly
useable turbo programs laying around that I still run.

                                                        Gotta Run ...

P. S. ECNCDC has to be the most finger tangling thing to type.
