[comp.lang.fortran] Sun Fortran tools

knight@mrco.carleton.ca (Alan Knight) (05/29/91)

Does anyone know of good FORTRAN tools for working on Sun's.  In
particular the standard debugger is inadequate, and we'd like to know
if there are better versions available.  Either commercial or freeware
is fine (cheaper is better, but not as much as better is better).

Thanks,

You might find my ups debugger useful.  I have just put release 2.31 on
export.lcs.mit.edu (18.30.0.238) - the file is contrib/ups-2.31.tar.Z.
See my article in comp.windows.x or comp.unix.ultrix for details.

Ups runs under X or Sunview.  It is primarily a C debugger, but there
is FORTRAN support - I have had mail from some FORTRAN programmers who
are using it to good effect.
