Apparently, "Daniel M. Eischen" scribbled: > > A couple little nits, probably nothing to do with FreeBSD, but more with the > GNU compiler... Yep. In fact, nothing to do with GNU's fortran compiler either. The "problems" you describe are all classic fortranisms (as found on UN*X). The underscores are by convention, the fortran libraries usually don't directly supply libc, fortran is pass by reference while C is value and in order to get the link right, you need fortran's runtime libraries for the IO system and *only* the compiler even vaguely knows how to get that ld invocation right... :-) (finger down throat). jdl
