NAME

setfil − specify Fortran file name

SYNOPSIS

call setfil ( unit, hollerith-string )

DESCRIPTION

Setfil provides a primitive way to associate an integer I/O unit number with a file named by the hollerith-string.  The end of the file name is indicated by a blank.  Subsequent I/O on this unit number will refer to the file whose name is specified by the string.  Setfil should be called only before any I/O has been done on the unit, or just after doing a rewind or endfile.  It is ineffective for unit numbers 5 and 6. 

SEE ALSO

fc (I)

BUGS

The exclusion of units 5 and 6 is unwarranted.
