NAME
abort - abnormal termination
SYNOPSIS
subroutine abort (string) character*(*) string
DESCRIPTION
Abort cleans up the I/O buffers and then terminates execution. If string is given, it is written to logical unit 0 preceded by ``abort:''. If the -g flag was specified during loading, then execution is terminated by calling abort(3) which aborts producing a core file in the current directory. If -g was not specified while loading, then *** Execution terminated is written on logical unit 0 and execution is ter- minated. If the f77_dump_flag environment variable has been set to a value which begins with y, abort(3) is called whether or not -g was specified during loading. Similarly, if the value of f77_dump_flag begins with n, abort is not called.
