[ccp4bb] off-topic: Verify3D
I recently acquired the source for Verify3D and have tried unsuccessfully to compile it. It seems to have been written with the SGI Irix F77 compiler in mind, and Ubuntu's gfortran doesn't seem to know what to do with it. Has anyone gotten it to compile on a Linux system, Ubuntu 11.04 in particular? Thanks. :) Eric Williams PhD candidate, Intelligent Systems Program University of Pittsburgh

Eric, have you tried it with g77? - gfortran cannot handle certain IRIX extensions which are considered by the Gnu folks to be 'beyond the pale'! However according to the g77 man page: -fugly Specify that certain ugly constructs are to be quietly accepted. Same as: -fugly-args -fugly-assign -fugly-assumed -fugly-comma -fugly-complex -fugly-init -fugly-logint These constructs are considered inappropriate to use in new or well-maintained portable Fortran code, but widely used in old code. See section Distensions, for more information. Note: The `-fugly' option is likely to be removed in a future version. Implicitly enabling all the `-fugly-*' options is unlikely to be feasible, or sensible, in the future, so users should learn to specify only those `-fugly-*' options they really need for a particular source file.

Re: [ccp4bb] off-topic: Verify3D
I have received several very helpful responses off-list. I very grateful and extremely impressed with the prompt and friendly help I've received. Thank you. :) One of the responders supplied me with a newer version of the code, updated in 2003 to compile in Linux. Some further tweaks may be needed, but once everything compiles and runs properly, I'll let the list know (assuming anyone's interested). Thanks again. :) Eric On Fri, Jun 8, 2012 at 10:47 AM, Eric Williams ericwilli...@pobox.comwrote: I recently acquired the source for Verify3D and have tried unsuccessfully to compile it.
