I am interested in writing a SAS to R translator that would take SAS
code for a particular package (ie. Proc IML - interactive matrix language)
and convert it to R. A primary motivation for such a tool would be an escape
from proprietary license license fees and labor savings from not having to
translate character by character manually.
  Any comments and suggestions would be appreciated.
