20.Sh DESCRIPTION
21.Nm F77
22is the UNIX Fortran 77 compiler.
23It accepts several types of arguments:
24.Pp
25Arguments whose names end with `.f' are taken to be
26Fortran 77 source programs;
27they are compiled, and
28each object program is left on the file in the current directory
29whose name is that of the source with `.o' substituted
30for `.f'.
31.Pp
32Arguments whose names end with `.F' are also taken to be Fortran 77 source
33programs; these are first processed by the C preprocessor before being
34compiled by
35.Nm f77 .
36.Pp
37Arguments whose names end with `.r' or `.e' are taken to be Ratfor
38or EFL source programs respectively; these are first transformed by the
39appropriate preprocessor, then compiled by
40.Nm f77 .
41.Pp
42Arguments whose names end with `.c' or `.s' are taken to be C or assembly
43source programs and are compiled or assembled, producing a `.o' file.
44.Pp
45The following options have the same meaning as in
46.Xr cc  1  .
47See
48.Xr ld  1
49for load-time options.
50.Tw Fl
51.Tp Fl c
52Suppress loading and produce `.o' files for each source
53file.
54.Tp Fl g
55Produce additional symbol table information for
56.Xr dbx  1
57and pass the
58.Fl lg
59flag to
60.Xr ld  1
61so that on abnormal terminations, the memory image is written
62to file
63.Pa core  .
64Incompatible with
65.Fl O  .
66.Tc Fl o
67.Ws
68.Ar output
69.Cx
70Name the final output file
71.Ar output
72instead of
73.Sq Pa a.out .
74.Tp Fl p
75Prepare object files for profiling, see
76.Xr prof  1  .
77.Tp Fl pg
78Causes the compiler to produce counting code in the manner of
79.Fl p ,
80but invokes a run-time recording mechanism that keeps more extensive
81statistics and produces a
82.Pa gmon.out
83file at normal termination. An execution profile can then be generated
84by use of
85.Xr gprof  1  .
86.Tp Fl w
87Suppress all warning messages.
88If the option is `\-w66', only Fortran 66 compatibility warnings are suppressed.
89.Tc Fl D
90.Ar name =def
91.Cx
92.Tc Fl D
93.Ar name
94.Cx
95Define the
96.Ar name
97to the C preprocessor, as if by `#define'. If no definition is given, the name
98is defined as "1". (`.F' suffix files only).
99.Tc Fl I
100.Ar dir
101.Cx
102`#include' files whose names do not begin with `/' are always sought
103first in the directory of the
104.Ar file
105argument, then in directories named in
106.Fl I
107options, then in directories on a standard list. (`.F' suffix files only).
108.Tp Fl O
109Invoke an
110object-code optimizer.
111Incompatible with
112.Fl g  .
113.Tp Fl S
114Compile the named programs, and leave the
115assembler-language output on corresponding files suffixed `.s'.
116(No `.o' is created.).
117.Pp
118The following options are peculiar to
119.Nm f77  .
120.Tp Fl d
121Used for debugging the compiler.
122.Tp Fl i2
123On machines which support short integers, make the default integer constants
124and variables short.
125.Fl i4
126is the standard value of this option). All logical quantities will be short.
127.Tp Fl q
128Suppress printing of file names and program unit names during compilation.
129.Tp Fl m
130Apply the M4 preprocessor to each `.r' file before transforming
131it with the Ratfor or EFL preprocessor.
132.Tp Fl onetrip
133.Tp Fl 1
134Compile DO loops that are performed at least once if reached.
135(Fortran 77 DO loops are not performed at all if the upper limit is smaller than the lower limit.)
136.Tp Fl r8
137Treat all floating point variables,
138constants, functions and intrinsics
139as double precision and all complex
140quantities as double complex.
141.Tp Fl u
142Make the default type of a variable `undefined' rather than using the default Fortran rules.
143.Tp Fl v
144Print the version number of the compiler, and the name of each pass as it
145executes.
146.Tp Fl C
147Compile code to check that subscripts are within declared array bounds.
148For multi-dimensional arrays, only the equivalent linear subscript is checked.
149.Tp Fl F
150Apply the C preprocessor to `.F' files, and the EFL, or Ratfor preprocessors
151to `.e' and `.r' files, put the
152result in the file with the suffix changed to `.f', but do not compile.
153.Tc Fl E
154.Ar x
155.Cx
156Use the string
157.Ar x
158as an EFL option in processing `.e' files.
159.Tc Fl R
160.Ar x
161.Cx
162Use the string
163.Ar x
164as a Ratfor option in processing `.r' files.
165.Tc Fl N
166.Op Cm qxscn
167.Ar nnn
168.Cx
169Make static tables in the compiler bigger. The compiler will complain
170if it overflows its tables and suggest you apply one or more of these
171flags. These flags have the following meanings:
172.Tw Ds
173.Tp Cm r q
174Maximum number of equivalenced variables. Default is 150.
175.Tp Cm x
176Maximum number of external names (common block names, subroutine and
177function names). Default is 200.
178.Tp Cm s
179Maximum number of statement numbers. Default is 401.
180.Tp Cm c
181Maximum depth of nesting for control statements (e.g. DO loops). Default is
18220.
183.Tp Ar n
184Maximum number of identifiers. Default is 1009.
185.Tp
186.Tp Fl U
187Do not convert upper case letters to lower case. The default is to convert
188Fortran programs to lower case except within character string constants.
189.Tp
190.Pp
191Other arguments
192are taken
193to be either loader option arguments, or F77-compatible
194object programs, typically produced by an earlier
195run,
196or perhaps libraries of F77-compatible routines.
197These programs, together with the results of any
198compilations specified, are loaded (in the order
199given) to produce an executable program with name
200.Sq Pa a.out .
201.Pp
202Programs compiled with
203.Nm f77
204produce memory dumps in file
205.Pa core
206upon abnormal termination if the
207.Sq Fl
208flag was specified during loading.
209If the environment variable
210.Ev f77_dump_flag
211is set to a value beginning with
212.Sq Ar y
213or
214.Sq Ar n  ,
215dumps for abnormal terminations are respectively forced or
216suppressed.
