Subject: Re: djgpp experience with f2c

Hi,
 I had a 25K line fortran program that worked on unix and could not
port it to M/S fortran due to limitations (of 16 bit fortran). Now I
am using f2c and djgpp , PDCurses, plplot-grx graphics libs which allow me to
port this program to DOS and still maintain it on HP710. F2C has some
extensions which are nice (allows recursion like HP's f77). I also
cross compile on the HP but for now I can only make libs, .o files and
ftp them to my PC and link on the PC. If I link on the HP the program
gives a strange prompt and stops :(  If you are not going to do
windows programs, then this (djgpp) setup is ideal.
