Subject: Fortran executables
Message-Id: <E15wiJL-0006sY-00@wing6.herald.ox.ac.uk>

The problem I'm having is that after I've compiled a fortran program using the command:
g77 -o myprog myprog.f

The executable it creates does not run from the directory I'm sitting in.  The message "Command not found" appears.  However if I move myprog to the default /bin directory it does work.  I was wondering how I can make my programs work anywhere and not just in the bin folder ?  If this is not possible is there a way of creating my own folder like the /bin directory ?

As you can probably tell I'm new to fortran and also unix so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Rob
