[comp.lang.fortran] FORTRAN compilers for 386 micro

meclark1@uxh.cso.uiuc.edu (09/10/89)

From MEClark, re FORTRAN compilers for 386 IBM clone

Since I didn't get any replies from my question of 9-1-89 and since there was   some trouble in Notes during the week, I'm asking the question again. I want to do some extensive number crunching on my 25 Mhz 386 equipped with a Weitek 3167 and 4 mb ram. I need advice to choose between NDP fortran by Micro-Way, Lahey's F77L-EM32, SAIC's VS fort, OASIS's fortran, or any other compiler.

We have been using SVS FORTRAN-386 and have been quite happy with it.
It will support your hardware.  Some other people here have used it to
port FORTRAN from the VAX to the 386, and I understand the code ports
with no or very little change.  (I am at a remote site so cannot ask
them now.)
