What am I doing wrong? Nothing, probably. I'm not sure why that file would be missing. Anyway, become the superuser, then do the following: If you are compiling for a 68020 processor, link /usr/lib/f77pass120 to /usr/lib/f77pass1; if you're compiling for a 68010 processor, link /usr/lib/f77pass110 to /usr/lib/f77pass1. Now you should be able to use f77 normally. Dave Decot hpda!decot
