[comp.lang.fortran] Fortran lint/ structurer availability

trh@eagle.ukc.ac.uk (T.R.Hopkins) (06/15/88)

There is both a structurer and a lint facility available in
Toolpack. The tool set contains a number of other very useful tools
as well. The whole thing is public domain. You can get a tape from
NAG Ltd., Mayfield House, 256 Banbury Road, Oxford, UK. The only
problem is that it is not a machine specific implementation.

We have Toolpack working at Kent on a VAX running 4.3bsd, a VAX
running VMS and a SUN 3 and we would be willing to provide tapes
for people willing to cover our costs (of course there is no
guarantees of bug fixing etc but the code has been remarkably
stable for the past year).

There is also a structurer called SPAG available from Polyhedra
Software, Magdalen House, 98 Abingdon Road, Standlake, Witney,
Oxford, OX8 7RN UK. This takes F66 or F77 as input and generates
well structured f77 as output. There are machine specific versions
available which know about the VMS Fortran extensions for example.
It does a remarkably good job of restructuring and is extremely
fast.

BTW I have no connections with NAG or Polyhedra other than using
there s/ware.
