Re: Trying to compile a program

I have some source code I would like to compile & run under linux. It is

This script is total rubbish, at least as far as Linux GCC is
concerned. It uses the ".c" or ".f" suffix to select the compiler;
this is not needed if you have the GCC C and FORTRAN compilers
installed because you can invoke either using the basic:

$ gcc -c foo.c

or

$ gcc -c foo.f

model. Just let GCC do the compiler selection for you.
