NAME

       GAC - The GAP Compiler

SYNOPSIS

	  gac [-c|-d] [-o <output>] {-f<option>} <input>...

DESCRIPTION

       GAC   compiles the input files.	 Input files  must be GAP  source code (suffix '.g' or '.gap'),  C source code (suffix '.c'),  or compiled
       code files (suffix '.o').

       If  neither -c  nor -d is given,  then 'gac'  produces
	      a  new kernel, which contains the compiled code for all the input files.

       -c     Compiles the input files to statically loadable object files, which must be linked together to a new kernel.

       -d     Compiles the input files to dynamically loadable object files, which can be loaded by a kernel at runtime.

       -C     Only compiles the input files to C code, which will require compilation and linking to be usable.

       -r     Statically compiled files will be assumed to be given by pathnames relative to the GAP root, and	will  be  compiled  for  automatic
	      loading when files are sought relative to the GAP root.

       -o <output>
	      Name the output file <output>.

       -ffast-int-arith
	      Emit  code for  arithmetic operations, which works faster if both operands are small integers  and slower otherwise.

       -ffast-plain-lists
	      Emit code for list access, which works faster if the list is a plain list and slower otherwise.

       -ffast-list-funcs
	      Inline  the functions 'Add' and 'Length' the code, which makes it a bit faster.

       -fno-check-types
	      Emit  no error checks  for list access, which makes it faster but may dump core if an error happens.

       -p <option>
	      Pass the option  <option> to  the C compiler.

       -P <option>
	      Pass the option  <option> to  the C linker.

NAME

       fc - frontend script to the f2c fortran compiler

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/fc [-o objfile] [-c] [-S] [-C] [-u] [-w] [-w66] [-D switch] [-I includepath] [-Ntnnn] [-P] files [-l library]

DESCRIPTION

       fc  is  a script intended to be used as a front end to the f2c FORTRAN-to-C translator. It is supposed to make the whole f2c and C compiler
       setup look like a real Fortran compiler.

       File arguments with a .f suffix are compiled as Fortran source.	Files with a .F suffix are passed through the C preprocessor cpp(1) first.
       Files with .c (C source) or .s (assembly source) suffixes are passed to the C compiler directly.  Files with a .e suffix are treated as efl
       source files, and files with a .r suffix are treated as RATFOR source files.

OPTIONS

       -o objfile
	       Produce an output executable named objfile rather than using the default name a.out.

       -c      Do not call the linker; instead, leave relocatable object files as *.o.

       -S      Produce assembly output as file.s

       -C      Compile in extra code to check that array subscripts are in bounds.

       -l library
	       Libraries specified with this option are passed to the linker.

       -U def  Definitions specified with this option are passed to C compiler (for .c files) or to cpp (for .F files) to remove definition.

       -u      Complain about undeclared variables.

       -v, --version
	       Print version of f2c in use

       -w      Omit all warning messages.

       -w66    Omit Fortran 66 (Fortran IV) compatibility warning messages.

       -D switch
	       The given switch is passed to the C compiler (for .c files), to cpp (for .F files) and to f2c.

       -I includepath
	       Passed to the C compiler (for .c files), to cpp (for .F files) and to f2c.

       -Ntnnn  Allow nnn entries in table t.

       -P      Emit .P files.

BUGS

       fc isn't really very good -- try fort77 (1), which does a better job.
       This manual page isn't really very good either...
