- Try symbolic links. For example,
-
- ln -s /whatever/pathname/you/want fort.3
-
- may not be as beautiful as
-
- //FT03F001 DD DSN=REVOLTING.MVS.DATASET,DISP=NEW
-
- but it works almost as well. (Unless you have one of those rare Unix
- machines where the default names of undeclared Fortran files are not
- fort.1, fort.2, ...)
