Mangle
is a source de-formatter/de-commentor/encryptor. It will remove all
comments and/or formatting from C/C++ source code leaving only what is
required. Mangle can also encrypt/decrypt source/text files.

VB2Glade
program is a simple command line program that takes the VB form file (.frm) as input and outputs a directory
with the created glade project. Conversion of pictures and some graphic elements are also supported.
platform:Win32

nib2gmodel
is a tool developed for GNUstep which converts
OpenStep/MacOS X nib files to a GNUstep gmodel file. As the nib file
format has never been documented, this tool must be run on a platform that
works with nibs natively, such as OPENSTEP 4 or Mac OS X 10.1.
The
Nokia Logo Converter for Linux
is a small program that is
capable of converting most Nokia Logo Files (*.nlm, *.nol, *.ngg) into
Bitmap and vice-versa, allowing you this way to use any Bitmap you drew or
copied from somewhere as a logo for your Nokia Mobile Phone or to browse
your collection of Nokia Logo files. It handles both formats of Logos
(Operator and Picture SMS) and has an integrated file browser showing you
every Logo or Bitmap in a directory while you scroll in the file box.
MARST
automatically translates programs written on the algorithmic
language Algol 60 to the C programming language. It includes three main
components: MARST, the translator; ALGLIB, the library containing
precompiled standard Algol 60 procedures, and other necessary routines;
and MACVT, the converter, which allows you to convert existing Algol 60
programs from other representations, to MARST representation.
g2c
(Glade to C Translator) creates modularized C code from a Glade
XML file.
JH2N
(Java host to named conversion program) converts a hosts file
to a full BIND 8 or 9 configuration. JH2N was inspired by the h2n.pl
program included in the O'Reilly "DNS and BIND" book. Various options are
available to enhance its operation by incuding external files. Using the
simple host file syntax, very large and complex zones can be maintained.
With the AIX ToolBox www.ibm.com/servers/aix/products/aixos/linux/ nearly all Linux programs are compilable
under AIX now.
code2ref
is a Perl script that generates references in text, TEX, HTML,
or XML format for a set of files containing C/C++-style structure and
function declarations. It uses comments that precede declarations as
the help text for each entry and has a customizable backend. The output
is produced according to a particular format. The format can be
built-in or user-specified. code2ref is similar to javadoc.
platform: Linux
license: GPL
REC
is a portable reverse engineering compiler, or decompiler.
It reads an executable file, and attempts to produce a C-like representation of the code
and data used to build the executable file.
It is portable because it has been designed to read files produced for many different
targets, and it has been compiled on several host systems.

bin2hex
bin2hex will convert a binary file into a Perl, Pascal/Delphi, C/C++, or Java source code array. For example, you may want to do this to include a GIF or other binary file directly inside your Perl CGI script, rather than reading the data from an external file to reduce file access.
platform: Linux (Perl)
Awka
is both a translator of AWK programs to
ANSI C, and a separate library against which the C code is linked. The aim of
Awka is to allow distribution of an executable (free distribution that is), to
provide better performance than AWK interpretors, and to allow easy inclusion
of AWK logic in larger C applications.

The cobfusc utility converts the input file, written in the C language,
into a human unreadable one, but compilable. The main work is converting
every identifier into a meaningless one, removing any comment and com-
pacting all the white-spaces when they are not required.
platform: Linux
zJSP
is an experimental translator
from JavaServer Pages (jsp's) to Java. It is designed to be used in conjunction
with Sun's Java Servlet Developers Kit (JSDK), version 2.0. It *should* work
with any Java Servlet environment compatible with JSDK servlets. zJSP is
implemented as a page compiler, translating JSP pages into Java Servlets, which
are then run using a Java Servlet environment.

tcpdump2ascii
is a small Perl utility that takes the hexadecimal output from
tcpdump(8) and produces the ASCII equivalent side by side.
platform: Linux,

gnome2wmaker
is a GNOME to Window Maker menu converter. You can use this
tool to get a dynamic submenu in the rootmenu of Window Maker listing all
installed GNOME applications.
BitGen
accepts text strings of 1's, 0's and hex digits and converts them to
equivalent "pwl" voltage sources for inclusion in netlists for circuit
simulation (with, SPICE or Spectre, for example). Periodic waveforms (such as
clocks) can be exported as "pulse" voltage sources. Waveform parameters such as
rise time, fall time, pulse width and duty cycle can be set on a
signal-by-signal basis. BitGen is written in Perl with the Perl/Tk toolkit and
has a simple graphical interface.

DeuTex
is a wad composer for Doom, Heretic, Hexen and Strife. It can be used
to extract the lumps of a wad and save them as individual files. Conversely, it
can also build a wad from separate files. When extracting a lump to a file, it
does not just copy the raw data, it converts it to an appropriate format (such
as PPM for graphics, .au for samples, etc.). When it reads files for inclusion
in pwads, it does the necessary reciprocal conversions. In addition, DeuTex has
functions such as merging wads, etc.
y2l
takes a yacc(1) grammar description file and generates an EBNF (Extended
Backus-Naur Form) grammar from it. By default, the output will be a LaTeX(1)
longtable environment, that can be \input{} into any LaTeX document. Automatic
substitution of symbolic terminals can also be taken care of. Options control
whether any optimization should be done on the grammar, and whether plain ASCII
output should be generated instead.

The Shadow
password file utilities package includes the programs necessary
to convert traditional V7 UNIX password files to the SVR4 shadow password
format, and additional tools to maintain password and group files (that work
with both shadow and non-shadow passwords).
nib2gmodel
is a tool developed for GNUstep which converts Apple/NeXT
OpenStep 4.x/Mac OS X Server nib files (and perhaps other nib files) to the
GNUstep version of a nib file called a gmodel file. Please note that, as the
nib file format has never been documented, this tool must be run on a platform
that works with nibs natively, as OpenStep or Mac OS X Server.

intel2gas
is a converter between the source format of the NASM and GAS (GNU
Assembler) assemblers. It was originally written for use with the Hermes
project but with extensibility in mind. Syntax files can be written to allow
conversion between any other assembly languages.
platform: Linux
reap
reap (the Reverse Engineer's Assembly Producer) is a Perl/Tk-based GUI for
the objdump binutil. It also cross-references JMPs and CALLs, and inserts
string references where appropriate. In addition to providing advanced editing
features, this program displays information about the binary under inspection,
the offset of an opcode, header info, and more.
The GOTE Converter
(The GTK+ Objects To Eiffel converter) automaticaly
generates GTK C external access features for Eiffel. It generates an Eiffel
wrapper library for GTK by parsing the GTK headers and source.
