Haven't seen one for FORTRAN 77, but for the ultimate in portability you want to write in FORTRAN 66 anyway, right? :-) In which case AT&T Bell Labs already wrote it, and it's called PFORT. Seriously, anybody know if a version of PFORT has been written for FORTRAN 77? Also, is PFORT public domain? Bennett Todd ...{decvax,ihnp4,akgua}!mcnc!ecsvax!bet

To my knowledge PFORT is not public domain but is free. In addition to verifying whether a program conforms to a fairly minimal FORTRAN IV (no END= on READs, for example), it also checks for type compatibility in parameters and a few other things like that. Not perfect, but quite useful. Incredibly, it is written in vanilla FORTRAN!
