DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION slEPCO (K0, K, E)
*+
*     - - - - -
*      E P C O
*     - - - - -
*
*  Convert an epoch into the appropriate form - 'B' or 'J'
*
*  Given:
*     K0    char    form of result:  'B'=Besselian, 'J'=Julian
*     K     char    form of given epoch:  'B' or 'J'
*     E     dp      epoch
*
*  Called:  slEPB, slEJ2D, slEPJ, slEB2D
*
*  Notes:
*
*     1) The result is always either equal to or very close to
*        the given epoch E.  The routine is required only in
*        applications where punctilious treatment of heterogeneous
*        mixtures of star positions is necessary.
*
*     2) K0 and K are not validated.  They are interpreted as follows:
*
*        o  If K0 and K are the same the result is E.
*        o  If K0 is 'B' or 'b' and K isn't, the conversion is J to B.
*        o  In all other cases, the conversion is B to J.
*
*        Note that K0 and K won't match if their cases differ.
