NAME

ratfor − rational FORTRAN dialect

SYNOPSIS

ratfor [ −6c ] [ −C ] [ −h ] [ filename ... ]

DESCRIPTION

ratfor converts the rational FORTRAN dialect into standard FORTRAN 77.  It provides control flow constructs essentially identical to those in C.  See the FORTRAN User’s Guide for a description of the Ratfor language. 

OPTIONS

−6cUse the character c as the continuation character in column 6 when translating to FORTRAN.  The default is to use the & character as a continuation character. 

−CPass Ratfor comments through to the translated code. 

−hTranslate Ratfor string constants to Hollerith constants of the form nnnhstring.  Otherwise just pass the strings through to the translated code.
