Hello, in my opinion it's a good idea to use either FORTRAN or C version of MOPAC7. Many years earlier the use of f2c and C was the only way I could make this system work, so that's why it is like we have it now.
MOPAC7 is mostly fortran, plus some (system-related) C-files thrown in. So the FORTRAN compiler must be able to mix FORTRAN and C code, naturally. But otherwise there is no reason why FORTRAN could not be used. However, since I'm not really an expert FORTRAN programmer myself, and also because MOPAC7 is a very old (and also very famous!) program, I would like to be very very careful in making any changes in the program. And also I would like to keep the original, unmodified source in a separate directory in the package. So let's just maintain MOPAC7 very carefully... :) To summarize, the idea is good, and I hope we can make it work ; please tell me if I can help. I'm not very good with those configuration tools but perhaps I can do testing etc. Regards, Tommi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
