It is pretty horrible.

The main problem is that it does it all on a line-by-line basis with no reference to the data definitions as a consequence even a MOVE of like-to-like (e.g. a 6a to a 6p) drops back into fixed form.

If all of your code is already in "/free compatible" form i.e. mostly Evals etc. then it does OK. But for a conversion of an RPG400 program to /Free you can't beat Linoma (which _does_ look at the data).
