Well, this is not exactly what I've in mind... let me explain a bit.

Actually, you start writing PL/I code, then you have your "Traslator" that
convert this into C. Than, using PRC-Tools you convert this into Palm binary
code.

What I'm talking about is that your "Translator" convert PL/I in XML (you
define the DTD (tags) you need). Than an XSLT processor can use different
XSL files to target different C styles, may be different compiler, or even
different platform...
Than you use a C compiler to generate the final binary code.
The C compiler will never see the XML files.

I hope to have explained it clearly...
