binfmtf-interpreter1
Binfmt_misc fortran handler
Usage
binfmtf-interpreter fortran-source-file-name
[command-line
opions ...]
Overview
binfmtf-interpreter compiles a fortran source file specified on the command-line using the g77 compiler, and executes the resulting file.
It is designed to be used as a handler for binfmt_misc handler, which is a system used in Linux for handling arbitrary files as executables.
The command-line options are passed on to the compiled binary.
File magic
There is a requirement for Fortran source files to have the magic characters c BINFMTF: at the beginning of the file.
That line also is used to specify the additional command-line options for Fortran compiler.
