[comp.sys.hp] Problems with "S" on HP 9000/500

mohr@fauern.UUCP (10/13/87)

hallo out there,

we want to use the software package "S" for data analysis and graphics from
AT&T on our HP 9000 Series 500 running HP-UX.

We compiled it, but when started, it core dumped. The main problem is,
I think, that "S" is partly written in Fortran (Ratfor) and partly in C.
And on the HP 9000/500 under HP-UX the Fortran- and the C-Compiler do not
work so fine together as they should. So, does anybody

 i)   has experiences with "S" on a HP 9000/500 ?

 ii)  or has an idea, concerning our problem with such mixed
      Fortran/C - software ?

 iii) know, whether there is a version of "S" totally written in C
      ( or (UNIX-)Fortran ) ?

 iv)  any other ideas ?

Thanx,
