Uh? For RS/6000, the IBM product is XL FORTRAN, not VS FORTRAN.
Anybody here worked with XL FORTRAN? I'd like to share some experiences.
I'm struggling, among other things, with the problem of detecting the
occurrence of floating-point errors. (I've abandoned the hope of ever really
trapping them...)
