Can't really comment on p2c, as i only used it once for a small program, but
it certainly works, and we use f2c here regularly as most of our programs
(and most foreign programs in our field, crystallography and modeling) are
written in fortran.

I believe p2c comes with an example program that is a simple basic converter.
And somebody has recently announced over in the linux newsgroups that he has
begun working on something like Visual Basic for X11, probably to be called
XBasic.
Hope this helps,
Martin
