Subject: Looking for a sample ComTran program

Dave -- someone suggested you might be able to help on this:

If you have any sample ComTran programs you could send me, or if you  
know of someplace where I might be able to find a short sample, I  
would be very grateful.

I'm looking for something in ComTran similar to the FLOW-MATIC  
example shown here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLOW-MATIC

Thank you for any help you can give.
