Hello, Mr. Lance, > I notice the following page refers to the availability of an Intel Fortran port, but I can't seem to find it in my /usr/ports (I just updated my ports (tag=RELENG_4) directory, so I must just be missing something. Any insight would be great. > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=37704 Thanks for showing interest for my send-pr!! We think Intel Fortran Compiler is worth for porting to FreeBSD! Good points: o Intel Fortran Compiler is highly optimizing compler for Pentium III, Pentium IV. even athlon(as Pentium III) o Always 20-30% faster and, especially for Pentium IV, 2-3 times faster than gcc when use SSE2!! o You can obtain freely for private or non commercial use. (See the lisence carefully) Bad point: o Unlike Intel C/C++ compiler, it doesn't produce FreeBSD native binary(it is not exact, if you use inline function or standard library, it is impossible, however if not, one may produce native object). So it requires linux_base-7 Time has passed since I made first port, this is a newest one: http://130.54.33.30/~maho/ifc-2002-6-22.tar.gz FOR COMMITTERS, Would you please take a look at my ports? Again, IT IS A WORTH TO INCLUDE INTO FreeBSD PORTS TREE! Thanks in advance, Nakata Maho To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
