   You really must tell us what version of f77 you are running when you ask
questions like this. We run 4.2 here, and in the 3F section of the manual
(FORTRAN subroutines) there is getarg(3f), iargc(3f), and getenv(3f), which
will return the  command line arguments. iargc(3f) is a function that returns
"argc", "call getarg(k,arg)" returns *argv[k-1] in the CHARACTER variable "arg",
and "call getenv(env,value)" returns the value of the environment variable
"env" in "value".
