- Hi,
-
- Unfortunately, I will probably have to have some sort of Fortran
- capabilities on my Amiga at some time in the future, so I've been
- taking a look at f2c, the Fortran->C converter from Bell Labs.
- I retrieved the source code from the net and was able to compile
- it on a unix machine at work, so I thought I should be able to compile
- and run it on my Amiga. I found that when I compile it under
- SASC v 6.00, it compiles (with a lot of warnings), but running it
- just gives gibberish. However, I can compile it
- under SASC v5.10 with equivalent compilation options and
- it works correctly. What should I do? Possibly something
- is wrong that SAS should know about, but this is a huge program
- that I don't really know anything about, so I can't localize the
- problem as they need to do anything. Did anything really change
- so that working code breaks between 5.10 and 6.00?

- Hi,
-
- Has anyone come up with a strategy for being able to take
- snapshots of programs that GURU with the catch.o startup module of
- SASC 6.0 without clobbering their hard disk? I thought I'd be able to
- do that be running the program from the removable RAM disk and then
- copying the file to the hard disk, but I still ended up clobbering the
- hard disk. What is the mechanism that causes this? Would locking the
- hard disk with the DOS command LOCK prevent hard disk damage? How
- about working from floppies? Any insights would be useful.

- Thanks,

- Hi,
-
- I would like to run Enforcer with my GVP G-force '040 accelerator
- to help debug a stubborn port of a unix program. However, when I
- try to run it from the CLI, it tells me that "CPU too expensive".
- I've tried turning off the mapping of kickstart into 32 bit RAM
- and turning off caches, but it doesn't help. How do I get this to
- run?
-
- I don't have a version number for this program, but it is 6400 bytes
- long if that helps. I'm running this on a GVP G-force 040 board for the
- A2000 with a hard drive on the SCSI port of the board if that makes
- any difference. The operating system is AmigaDOS 2.05 with kickstart
- 2.04 ROMS. The documentation doesn't tell me what this error message
- means or what to do to fix it.
-
- Thanks,
- Eric Stern
