I have heard of some programs out there which do this, however I have
also written my own.  These are sys-rpl and very very fast.

program TODEC

CONVERTS RADIX --> DEC#
1: { "numerical string" RADIX }   -->   real


program TORAD

CONVERTS DEC# TO OTHER RADIX
2: real   1: target radix   -->  { "numerical string" RADIX }


These programs will handle both the integer part and fraction part
correctly.  You can also use any radix from 2 to 36.  Naturally
use A..Z after 0..9 in the numerical string for any radix larger
than 10.  Also feel free to place a decimal point anywhere in the
numerical string.
