HF77(1)

πŸ’– HF77 β€” bestie edition πŸ’–

okay so this is HF77(1) from the LAM TOOLS manual set, and honestly? it's a short one, but we're gonna make it cute anyway πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

mpif77, hf77 β€” compile LAM FORTRAN programs πŸ’…

yes bestie, that's the whole job. it compiles FORTRAN. for LAM. periodt.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

hf77 [-showme] ...

that ... at the end? that's not me being lazy, that's the man page saying "and literally whatever else your FORTRAN compiler wants, we pass it along, no questions asked" πŸ¦‹


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so the vibe here is: this page is short on purpose. for all other options, go read f77(1) β€” or whatever your underlying FORTRAN compiler happens to be, because that's the thing actually doing the work. we're just the middleman with good hair. πŸ’β™€οΈ

🚨 IMPORTANT 🚨 the name hf77 has been deprecated in favor of mpif77. so like… it still exists, it's not deleted, but it's giving "old group chat nobody checks anymore." please see its corresponding man page instead. go where the main character energy is. πŸ‘‘

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

  • f77(1) β€” your actual FORTRAN compiler, the one holding all the options 🫢
  • ld(1) β€” the linker, doing linker things πŸ”₯
  • mpicc(1) β€” the C sibling, iconic in its own right
  • mpiCC(1) β€” the C++ sibling, also iconic
  • mpif77(1) β€” the glow-up version of this exact page, go here instead bestie πŸ’–

and that's the whole page, no cap. this was LAM 7.1.4, dated July, 2007 β€” so yeah, it's a little vintage, but vintage is just aesthetic with a longer track record ✨ stay hydrated, read mpif77(1), mwah πŸ’‹πŸŒΈ
