NAME

library − create a library of FORTRAN and Pascal objects

SYNOPSIS

library −l ofile ifile [ ifile .... ]
library listfname ofile ifile [ ifile .... ]

DESCRIPTION

Library can be used to generate a library of FORTRAN and Pascal object (.j) files.  The resultant library, which should be suffixed with .j, can be used as as regular object to the f77(1) or pc(1) program.  The prelinker program code, will recognize the library format and only extract needed objects. 

Library accepts as its first argument either a filename, on which a listing of the created library is placed, or the switch −l , which is used to indicate that no library listing is desired.  Library can also be run interactively, in which case it prompts for the file names. 

If the resultant library file is not suffixed with .j, f77(1) and pc(1) will not recognize it as a FORTRAN/Pascal file.
