Since Ed Reeder from Intel asked for a Ratfor-to-C translator, I thought I
would put out a request for a FORTARN-to-C translator. I realize that it is
theorectically possible to run "struct" on a fortran file, then use the
Ratfor-to-C translator, but I tried this once and the original Fortran
program compiled, but the Ratfor one did not.

Since most of the world's non-business code is written in Fortran, it would
be great to have a Fortran-to-C translator.  If one doesn't currently exist,
it would be an excellent project for a Master's thesis.
