Only the latest C and FORTRAN compilers we have here as prerelease versions allow cross calling. These are invoked with mf77 and mcc and I have a 9 page document "FORTRAN release 2 Release Notes" by James Cownie, October 12 , 1989 which explains the cross calling. mf77 and mcc work like conventional UNIX compilers and invoke the linker which can also be called with mld. Passing characters around includes calling subroutines and functions to do the conversion. Let me know if you need a copy of the said release notes. John Blair-Fish
