💖 f2java — a lil manual, bestie edition 💖

ok so this is f2java(1) from the USER COMMANDS corner of the manual world, and she's here to turn your Fortran into Java. no cap. let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

f2java — produce java source and java class from Fortran file

like... she literally takes a Fortran file and gives you back java source and java class. it's giving translator. it's giving bilingual icon. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

f2java file file Fortran file to transform

yes bestie, that's really how it's written. f2java takes file, and the file is the Fortran file to transform. periodt.

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so here's the tea ☕ — if you translate a Fortran file with f2java test.f, it will produce one class file and one Java source file for each program unit. not one total. each program unit. she's thorough like that 💖

which means you end up with several generated files: .java, .class. multiple. a whole little friend group of files 🫶

⚠️ okay IMPORTANT one, don't skip this: before attempting to run the code, make sure that the org.netlib.util package (contained in f2jutil.jar) is in your CLASSPATH. if you don't, it's not gonna run, and you're gonna be sad, and i don't want that for you 😭
