All of the necessary information regarding this effort has now been obtained. So, further discussions of this particular project will probably take place in only the Fortran Newsgroup. If and when the project is completed I will probably post another general note about it.
The retired computer programmer that I am working with has agreed to work on it. If we can generate a modern Fortran translation of the original program code then that will be made available to people and probably tested by Fortran users. And researchers around the world can then work with that code if they wish. But, if my programming colleague is going to do any work on modifying the newer program code then that will need to be done using True BASIC as that is the only language he will work with. So, for our own work, its that language or nothing.
The project is in my opinion worthwhile as the Etgtab program seems to be so unique. No other freeware program can generate those data as far as I am aware. And it has been my own experience that True BASIC code is very easy to translate into virtually any other language.
