That is not necessary. All that is needed is that it should implement
those features of what the scanner software outputs that have
a counterpart in PMX.

I was willing to give it a try.

The publicly available software seems to be all but abandoned.
I.e. if you still have an old machine running Ubuntu Dapper
Duck, it will probably work out of the box, but on a 64-bit
Ubuntu 14.04 even rebuilding form source gets one into
segmentation faults.

So, all that I would be able to with your code would be
to translate it into Lua, which we TeX-ies all have. From
a first glance at Oberon, that should not be too hard for
someone with a substantial Pascal background.
