- Yes, there is a conversion program call "The Gotoless Translator".
- I don't know where to get it but I have seen the results from
- converting a 30Kb BASIC program to C. It looks weird but when
- compiled it runs at about the same speed as the compiled BASIC.
- It does eliminate all the gotos.
- Does anybody know where it comes from?
