Is there a tool for converting a file containing unformatted 64-bit 
Cray floating point numbers into 32-bit IEEE floats and vice versa?

I see that Unicos has a few routines for doing this (IEG2CRAY and
CRAY2IEG) but I want the code so that I can compile it for various 
machines.   

Thanks,

Joe Habermann
