.sh NAME
fc \*- Fortran compiler
.sh SYNOPSIS
.bd fc
[
.bd \*-c
] sfile1.f ... ofile1 ...
.sh DESCRIPTION
.it Fc
is the UNIX Fortran compiler.
It accepts three types of arguments:
.s3
Arguments whose names end with `.f' are assumed to be
Fortran source program units; they are compiled, and
the object program is left on the file sfile1.o (i.e.
the file whose name is that of the source with `.o' substituted
for `.f').
.s3
Other arguments (except for
\fB\*-c\fR)
are assumed
to be either loader flags, or
object programs, typically produced by an earlier
.it fc
run,
or perhaps libraries of Fortran-compatible routines.
These programs, together with the results of any
compilations specified, are loaded (in the order
given) to produce an executable program with name
.bd a.out.
.s3
The
.bd \*-c
argument suppresses the loading phase, as does
any syntax error in any of the routines being compiled.
.s3
The following is a list
of differences between
.it fc
and ANSI standard Fortran (also see the BUGS section):
.s3
.lp +4 4
1.	Arbitrary combination of types is allowed
in expressions.  Not all combinations are expected to
be supported at runtime.
All of the normal
conversions involving integer, real, double
precision and complex are allowed.
.s3
.lp +4 4
2.	Two forms of ``implicit'' statements are recognized:
.bd "implicit integer /i\*-n/",
or
.bd "implicit integer (i\-n)."
.s3
.lp +4 4
3.	The types
doublecomplex, logical*1,
integer*1, integer*2,
integer*4 (same as integer),
real*4 (real),
and real*8 (double precision)
are supported.
.s3
.lp +4 4
4.	\fB&\fR as the first character of a line
signals a continuation card.
.s3
.lp +4 4
5.	\fBc\fR as the first character of a line signals a comment.
.s3
.lp +4 4
6.	All keywords are recognized in lower case.
.s3
.lp +4 4
7.	The notion of `column 7' is not implemented.
.s3
.lp +4 4
8.	G-format input is free form\*-
leading blanks are ignored, the first blank after the start
of the number terminates the field.
.s3
.lp +4 4
9.	A comma in any numeric or logical input field terminates
the field.
.s3
.lp +4 4
10.	There is no carriage control on output.
.s3
.lp +4 4
11.	A sequence of
.it n
characters in double quotes `"' is equivalent to
.it n
.bd h
followed by those characters.
.s3
.lp +4 4
12.	In
.bd data
statements, a hollerith string may initialize an array
or a sequence of array elements.
.s3
.lp +4 4
13.	The number of storage units requested by a binary
.bd read
must be identical to the number contained
in the record being read.
.s3
.lp +4 4
14.	If the first character in an input file is ``#'',
a preprocessor identical to the C preprocessor
is called, which implements ``#define'' and ``#include''
preprocessor statements.
(See the C reference manual for details.)
The preprocessor does not recognize
Hollerith strings written with
\fIn\*|\fBh\fR.
.s3
.i0
In I/O statements, only unit numbers 0-19 are supported.
Unit number
.it n
refers to file
fort\fInn;\fR
(e.g. unit 9 is file `fort09').
For input, the file must exist;
for output, it will be created.
Unit 5 is permanently associated with
the standard input file; unit 6 with the
standard output file.
Also see
.it setfil
(III)
for a way to associate unit numbers with named files.

Compile-time diagnostics are given in English,
accompanied if possible with the offending

occurred.
