Does anyone know of a good Fortran compiler that is available on the Mac and that is compatable with the Mac+? I am trying to port a large graphics program written in fortran to the Mac and need a decent compiler. Hopefully one which can be used with a hard disk. Full toolbox support is not required, as long as there is some way to get graphics up on the screen. Greg Corson ....seismo!iuvax!kangaro!milo

I have written a 13000 line plus program in it. It is full ANSI F77 compatible with extensions like SELECT/CASE DO/REPEAT/CYCLE etc. It was written by ABSOFT. It supports MOST (400+) toolbx calls, and any others can be done in assembler if needed. It takes care of opening the first window, like a 'glass tty', so mainframe programs should run without mods. It does the SIEVE benchmark in 6.13 secs. I think it is great. Phil Hunt

It has a fairly detailed description in the September 1985 issue of MacTutor. Peter Espen

Previous messages refer to the Absoft Fortran compiler and the Microsoft
Fortran compiler. The Microsoft product originates with Absoft - the
copyright notices are (c) Microsoft Corporation 1985, (c) Absoft Corporation
1983, 1984, 1985.
I have both compilers (yes, they are legal; no, I didn't pay for both) and
they appear to be different versions (as in version 99.4) of the same compiler.
