Specifically, on a Sun4 with Sun Fortran1.2, I compiled everything in the f/ subdirectory with f77, gpr.c with cc (after commenting out a reference to the "moon" external variable), and linked everyhting with f77 -lX11. Seems to work just fine. -- Andreas Stolcke International Computer Science Institute stolcke@icsi.Berkeley.EDU 1957 Center St., Suite 600, Berkeley, CA 94704 (415) 642-4274 ext. 126
