fc - frontend script to the f2c fortran compiler

Author

       S. Feldman, D. Gay, M. Maimone, N, Schryer are all mentioned in the paper on the conversion of Fortran to
       C.
       Peter   Maydell   (pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk)   wrote   this   manual   page,   and    Alan    Bain
       (alanb@chiark.greenend.org.uk) made some minor modifications.

Bugs

fc isn't really very good -- try fort77 (1), which does a better job.
       This manual page isn't really very good either...

Description

fc  is  a script intended to be used as a front end to the f2c FORTRAN-to-C translator. It is supposed to
       make the whole f2c and C compiler setup look like a real Fortran compiler.

       File arguments with a .f suffix are compiled as Fortran source.   Files  with  a  .F  suffix  are  passed
       through  the  C  preprocessor cpp(1) first. Files with .c (C source) or .s (assembly source) suffixes are
       passed to the C compiler directly.  Files with a .e suffix are treated as efl  source  files,  and  files
       with a .r suffix are treated as RATFOR source files.

Name

       fc - frontend script to the f2c fortran compiler

Options

-oobjfile
               Produce an output executable named objfile rather than using the default name a.out.

       -c      Do not call the linker; instead, leave relocatable object files as *.o.

       -S      Produce assembly output as file.s

       -C      Compile in extra code to check that array subscripts are in bounds.

       -llibrary
               Libraries specified with this option are passed to the linker.

       -Udef  Definitions  specified with this option are passed to C compiler (for .c files) or to cpp (for .F
               files) to remove definition.

       -u      Complain about undeclared variables.

       -v,--version
               Print version of f2c in use

       -w      Omit all warning messages.

       -w66    Omit Fortran 66 (Fortran IV) compatibility warning messages.

       -Dswitch
               The given switch is passed to the C compiler (for .c files), to cpp (for .F files) and to f2c.

       -Iincludepath
               Passed to the C compiler (for .c files), to cpp (for .F files) and to f2c.

       -Ntnnn  Allow nnn entries in table t.

       -P      Emit .P files.
