Date: 01 Feb 1995 00:52:31 GMT Organization: University of Tasmania, Australia. Lines: 26 Distribution: world Message-ID: <JLOVELL.95Feb1115231@oort.phys.utas.edu.au> NNTP-Posting-Host: oort.phys.utas.edu.au Hi, I'm attempting to port a radioastronomy software package (the Caltech VLBI package for those that are interested) to FreeBSD 2.0. A lot of the code is in FORTRAN and the f77 that comes with FreeBSD seems to be compiling it all pretty well (f77 uses f2c and gcc doesn't it?). However I run into problems when trying to link the object files, as the code relies on lots of Vax specific routines (the package was originally written for Vax/VMS). This isn't a problem under SunOS or Solaris as there is a library, libV77, containing all the relavant routines ported to Unix. Has anyone written a port of these routines to FreeBSD?
