sc-mkf77sym(1)

📦 version 2.3.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 NAME 💖

sc-mkf77sym — the little bestie that generates symbols so you can link your FORTRAN subroutines into MPQC 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

sc-mkf77sym input output

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so listen, sc-mkf77sym is not complicated, she just needs two arguments: the name of the input file and the name of the output file. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

the input file is where you drop your C preprocessor definitions, and they look like #define F77_FUNC, where FUNC is the name of a FORTRAN 77 function. then the output file takes those definitions and assigns them to the C symbol that's gonna link with that FORTRAN 77 function. matchmaker behaviour honestly 🫶

so like, for example — say your FORTRAN symbols get made by taking the routine name, converting it to lowercase, and appending an underscore. then an input file that's just:

#define F77_DGEMM

will give you an output file that's just:

#define F77_DGEMM dgemm_

literally iconic. it's giving translator. it's giving glue code. 😭✨
