Folks: i am interested in any commercial/institutional software tool that checks the non-portable features of existing and new FORTRAN source for use in the UNIX environment. The software tool should ideally have been ported (!) onto several platforms and should check for deviation from ANSI Fortran 77 (8x or 90 a plus) and warn against potential compiler traps. i would appreciate any info/leads on the above. i seem to remember the NAG (?) group having written some tools that would do this ? could anyone give me information or persons i can e-mail to ? Thanks in advance. PS: i will post replies if people out there are interested.

I am aware of a program called the PFROT verfier, that is supposed to verify a given Fortran code as being "portable" to any Fortran 77 compiler. It has been mentioned in many numerical analysis journal articles I have seen. It think it is available from IMSL. Brent H. Besler
