How about a tool that just does it - and you get source code to study?

Go to http://www.jcrcmds.com

That is Craig Rutledge' site, and he has a command called JCR4PROTO that does the conversion for you.

It actually goes a step further than many would, by using variables for the procedure name, as I recall - worth taking a look.

And it's free!

The basic process, though? You need a prototype (in earlier releases) of your program. Make the parameters of the prototype match what is in your *ENTRY PLIST.

Then you need a PI - the procedure interface. I almost always put this right before the calculations - /free or fixed, it's the same.

Then comment out or delete the *ENTRY PLIST.

Basically you are declaring a procedure - it happens to be the MAIN procedure. Its name has to be the same as the program name.

Converting *ENTRY & PLIST to free format.

Are there some simple examples, tutorials, and explanations on replacing
*ENTRY? I am having trouble understanding the process.
