FORTPREP


     Compiles and prepares a Compatibility Mode FORTRAN 66/V
     program. HP FORTRAN 66/V is not part of the 900 Series HP
     3000 Computer System Fundamental Operating Software and must
     be purchased separately.  (CM)

SYNTAX


     FORTPREP [textfile][,[progfile][,[listfile]

               [,[masterfile][,[newfile]]]]][;INFO=quotedstring]


PARAMETERS


textfile            Actual file designator of the input file from which
                    the source program is read. This can be any ASCII
                    input file.  The formal file designator is FTNTEXT.
                    Default is $STDIN.

progfile            Actual file designator of the program file to which
                    the prepared program segments are written. When you
                    omit progfile, the MPE Segmenter will create the
                    program file, which will reside in the temporary
                    file domain as $OLDPASS.  If you create your own
                    program file, you must do so in one of two ways:

                    o  Use the MPE/iX BUILD command, and specify a file
                       code of 1029 or PROG, and a numextents value of
                       1.  This file is then used by the PREP command.

                    o  Specify a nonexistent file in the progfile
                       parameter, resulting in the creation of
                       job/session temporary file of the correct type.

listfile            Actual file designator of the file to which the
                    program listing is written. This can be any ASCII
                    output file.  The formal file designator is FTNLIST.
                    Default is $STDLIST.

masterfile          Actual file designator of the master file with which
                    textfile is merged to produce a composite source.
                    This can be any ASCII input file.  The formal file
                    designator is FTNMAST.  Default is that the master
                    file is not read; input is read from textfile, or
                    from $STDIN if textfile is not specified.

newfile             Actual file designator of the file resulting from
                    the merger of textfile and masterfile.  This can be
                    any ASCII output file.  The formal file designator
                    is FTNNEW.  Default is that the file is not written.

quotedstring        A sequence of characters between two single
                    quotation marks (apostrophes) or between two double
                    quotation marks.  You may use the delimiter as part
                    of the string so long as the delimiter appears
                    twice.  Any occurrence of two single quotation marks
                    in a row, or two double quotes in a row, is
                    considered part of the string, and, therefore, not
                    the terminating delimiter.  INFO=quotedstring is
                    used to pass initial compiler options to a program.

NOTE


The formal file designators used in this command (FTNTEXT, FTNLIST,
FTNMAST, and FTNNEW) cannot be backreferenced as actual file
designators in the command parameter list.  For further information,
refer to the "IMPLICIT FILE COMMANDS FOR SUBSYSTEMS" discussion of the
MPE/iX FILE command.


OPERATION


     This command compiles and prepares a Compatibility Mode
     FORTRAN 66/V program into a program file stored on disk.  If
     you do not specify a source file, MPE/iX expects the input
     from your standard input device.  If you do not specify
     listfile, MPE/iX sends the output to your standard list
     device.

     The USL file created during compilation is a system-defined
     temporary file $OLDPASS, which is passed directly to the MPE
     Segmenter.  The Segmenter also uses the file $OLDPASS.  The
     prepared program segments are written to it, thus
     overwriting any existing temporary file of that name.

     If you have no need to examine the USL file, use the default
     for progfile.  This way, MPE/iX will create a program file
     for you, ensuring the best results.  If, on the other hand,
     you want to store the USL file and the program file as
     separate entities, create a permanent program file with the
     BUILD command, and reference it in the FORTPREP command
     line.  When you create the file, you must specify a file
     code of PROG or 1029 and a numextents parameter value of 1,
     as shown in the example below.

     BUILD PROGX;CODE=PROG;DISC=1

     This command may be issued from a session, job, or program.  It may
     not be used in BREAK.  Pressing [Break] suspends the execution of
     this command.  Entering RESUME continues the execution.


EXAMPLE(S)


     To compile and prepare an FORTRAN 66/V program entered from
     your standard input device, into the standard default file
     $OLDPASS, with the listing printed on your standard list
     device, enter

     FORTPREP

     To compile and prepare an FORTRAN 66/V source program from a
     text file named TEXTX into a program file named PROGX, with
     the resulting listing sent to the list file LISTX, enter

     FORTPREP TEXTX,PROGX,LISTX

     The FORTPREP command combines the compilation and
     preparation steps.  The compiled program segments, stored in
     the file $OLDPASS, are prepared and stored in the program
     file PROGX.  Therefore, it is equivalent to

     FORTRAN TEXTX, LISTX
     PREP $OLDPASS,PROGX
