Abstract
A translator has been written which simplifies the programming of problems with the formula manipulation system TRIGMAN. It allows for the introduction of a new data type, SERIES, into a FORTRAN program, and translates the user's program into legal FORTRAN. It should not be difficult to adapt it for other formula manipulation systems now being used in Celestial Mechanics.
