Conversion of Forms code. Missing kumlib.pll file

During a large porting job from Forms 4.5 to Forms 6, I am confronted with
the residues of the Kumaran GUI*Converter.
This Kumaran tool was used in 1999 to port the original Forms 3.0 code to
Forms 4.5. A lot of the Forms code now has references to a runtime
executable kumlib.plx, containing a procedure KNAVIGATE.

And the vendor never shipped the correct source code file kumlib.pll. Only a
crippled file with the relevant code replaced with NULL statements. The
vendor de-supported the software years ago. Also Kumaran de-supported this
GUI*Converter version years ago and cannot supply me with a correct
kumlib.pll file.

Does anybody out there have ever used this version of the conversion tools
and would be willing to share a copy of the kumlib.pll file? Or even a Forms
6 compatible version of kumlib.plx? Or is capable of reverse-engineering plx
code to pll?

Maarten
