Fwd: Changing C comments

Hello,

I have to update many c-source programs and one important point is to
change all the end-of-line comments from 'old C' (/*--*/) to C++ type
(//---). This seems (to me) to be ajob that is often required but I am
unable to find anything on this topic on the web. (Google is, seemingly,
not my friend).
Ideally, Iwould like to change the comments (only single-line ones
though so /* and */ appearing on a line without their 'friend' should
remain.
It would also save a lot of work if there were a way to format all the
new comments so that the '//' was set at a given column (or after the
code if it's too long).
Can anyone point me to some scripts or whatever that might help ??
Sorry if this stuff is easy to find, I can't.

Best regards,

Bob von Knobloch.
