   I came across a description of a project to convert a lot of Fortran code   
   to Pascal. The basic idea they came up with is to use a pattern matching/   
   translation language, like Perl or similar, to do 90% of the convertion,   
   then use manual editting to finish it up. The idea is that instead of   
   writing an entire programming language parser, you just match common patterns   
   and convert.
