Re: [LI] Re: Compiling fortran programs using g77

["Chakrabarti, Suvendra (CTS)" <CSUVENDRA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

g77 in itself is not a Fortran compiler. It is a wrapper which takes
the fortran source, and generates the equivalent C source, and
finally uses gcc to compile the program. And if no output filename
is specified, like all good ol' unix systems, generates an execuatble
binary a.out. You can run a.out.

Sir
The command seems to work. But in DOS env we usually find the .exe file at
<filename without extension>.exe
g77 <filename>.for it compiles the program. Afterwards I
want to know how to run the program.
I am not able to gain more from man g77 either.

Thankyou
