<set mode="oldphart"> If you can't do what's needed in FORTRAN, you can't do it. Back in the early '80s, I was working with Dan Alderson at JPL. We were doing work with structures and pointer arithmetic, in FORTRAN77 because it was a subroutine and function package to be used in other FORTRAN programs so we couldn't use Dan's favorite language, PL/1. Those of you who think you can't do things like that in FORTRAN would do well to ponder the fact that Jerry Pournelle has called Dan "the sane genius." </mode> -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
