I am about to convert a large Pascal program written for VAX/VMS
to run under Berkeley's pi/pc.
I suspect the conversion problems will be:
	1. Include files
	2. 'external' definitions
	3. Upper/lower case keywords
	4. File I/O
I suspect much can be done with a few sed(I) scripts.

1. Has anyone had experience doing this?  What are the problems?
2. Does anyone have some conversion aids?
	Reply by mail, sufficient interest will provoke a summary article
