  19. I asked basically this question a few weeks ago and received many fine
  20. responses for which I am grateful.
  21.  
  22. If I understood the answers, the only company that has a conversion
  23. program is Irvine Compiler Corporation. While many people believe 
  24. that GNAT is an Ada to C translator, apparently it isn't.
  25.  
  26. Fortunately, our Ada compiler arrived before I had to persue
  27. either of these leads.
