Please read the second half of my post from yesterday, in reply to yours, first raising include. It provides links and some information on gfortran, including a brief mention of its include directive. > write a script that inserts the include file at the right point.

There's brief mention of the directive in gcc/doc/gfortran.1 in the gcc source code. Lets' also have a look in the manual: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gfortran/index.html#Top The keyword index only seems to lead to a page describing how to control the directory search path used with the INCLUDE directive, but that's confirmation that it's there, even if obscurely documented. > > f2c has trouble with some of the evil constructs that APT uses > > > Hopefully no computed goto's and 1960-vintage syntax of that sort. > Also, the Hollerith-encoded char strings are machine dependent. A lot of problems disappear if a fortran compiler is used, I figure. It'll be interesting to hear what happens when you stuff APT through gfortran. As mentioned in my prior post, the ancient code may have to have some of the dust of ages brushed off it, to be accepted by a modern compiler. Erik -- History doesn't always repeat itself.
