This isn't just shell script you have submitted so any translator is probably not going to work. This also contains awk script. There have been a number of times in my career where there just isn't an easy way to handle large and many times poorly written scripts. You just have to attempt to understand them in a top down fashion and re-write them. In this case, I always make sure I am not trying to correct something that really isn't broken. What problem will you solve by converting this to perl?
