I am in the process of porting an optical-design program (in FORTRAN)
from an Apollo to an IRIS. In the code, various logical units
are opened to the predefined files -STDIN and -STDOUT, which on the Apollo, 
strangely enough, correspond to stdin and stdout. My question is,
can this be done on the IRIS? Is there a way in FORTRAN to open several logical
units to write to the terminal? I have searched the manuals, and
tried various things, and I can't figure out how to do this. Of
course, C is my native language, and I am barely literate in FORTRAN,
so maybe there's a real obvious way to do this. I apologize in advance
is this is a stupid question. Note: An incredible amount of code will
need to be rewritten if this can not be done...even a kludge would be
welcome. Thanks.
