I got the prog2mif filter and manual page (there's a PERL script which
looks the simplest to deal with -- there's also C code, if you're into
compiling it for every platform instead) from procyon.cis.ksu.edu... it
handles conversions from various programming languages to MIF (like
tgrind does for LaTeX).

Do you want it?  It's in /mit/wchuang/fmtemplates/Filters:

	prog2mif		PERL script (correct #! line)
	prog2mif.1		manual page

********

I also have the "pstoepsi" Bourne shell script, and I built the
utilities that it needs...

These are in /mit/wchuang/fmtemplates/Filters/epsi:

	pstoepsi		Bourne shell script
				(has options for converting via 'gs'
				[normal] and with Sun's X/NeWS -- the
				latter could be removed for Athena)

and the utilities it needs:

	gs		(In the Outland locker, or /afs/sipb/project/gnu/bin)
(GS)	./pstoppm.ps		PostScript -> PPM converter
	./pbmtoepsi/*bin/pbmtoepsi
				PBM -> EPSI converter (compiled for
				DEC, RT, VAX, and RS/6k)... sources
				are in ./pbmtoepsi/

	./pstorast		PostScript -> Rasterfile (only for
(X/NeWS)			Sun's X/NeWS)
	rasttopnm		(In the Graphics locker)

I tested the conversion (on a DECstation, and it converted fine, and
loaded up in FrameMaker, and displayed [a full-page PostScript inset]).
