Porting my fpgroups code was pretty much straightforward. It is
(almost) a mechanical work... but a work that has to be done. I am not
sure if it is automatic enough to be done by a script. What i did is
to change by hand all the definitions of the gap objects i use. After
that, it is a matter of tuning stuff like opening and closing
brackets, quotes and so on.

To give you an idea: my poroject is about 2000 lines of code, a big
part of it dealing with the gap interface. I don't remember exactly
how much time it took to port itby hand it to the libgap interface;
but i am sure i did it in less than a day.
