Annotation of researchv10no/cmd/pfort/readme, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: pfort can be compiled with the command run.
                      2: If the .o files already exist, the lod file can be used.
                      3: In each case, the .f files from the pfort tape
                      4: (or the corresponding .o files) without the last
                      5: line on the tape (which started with a dot in column one)
                      6: are compiled and loaded. In addition, the files pack.f
                      7: and unpack.f, written by me, are included in the compilation.
                      8: These pack and unpack routines are machine dependent
                      9: and must be written in assembly language on machines
                     10: that do not provide for byte manipulation in their
                     11: fortran. For the VAX, f77 programs were adequate for the job.
                     12: See readpfort2 for runcoms for making and testing
                     13: the pack and unpack programs.
                     14:       See readpfort1 for how the tape was read.
                     15: The undefined: L15 recurs when run is used, and one gets
                     16: a huge PFORT file with 206760 bytes. (This has happened to
                     17: me before when something was undefined ore missing.)
                     18: However, a subsequent use of the lod command works and does not
                     19: complain about anything missing. It produced the PFORT file in this
                     20: directory which is slightly smaller than the OPFORT file
                     21: made previously. The latter is identical to /usr/lbin/PFORT
                     22: which I have executed on various files.
                     23:        The compilation was done with the command
                     24: run > outt 2>outt2
                     25: The error messages in outt2 are all warnings. These warnings
                     26: may explain why I could not use the options to suppress printout.
                     27: the lod command produces output even though it complains about L15. !!!
