	I have a clarification to make re. my earlier posting about
the availability of Ratfor.   

	Ratfor is >not< a compiled language.

    Ratfor is a preprocessor that converts Ratfor code to regular fortran
(rather unpleasant fortran, but the good part is you don't have to
look at it)  which must then be compiled by a standard fortran compiler 
(eg. the Absoft compiler).  

	Sorry if I gave the impression that it included a compiler,
