NAME

       f2py - Fortran to Python interface generator

SYNOPSIS

       (1) To construct extension module sources:

       f2py  [<options>]  <fortran  files>  [[[only:]||[skip:]] <fortran functions> ] [: <fortran
       files> ...]

       (2) To compile fortran files and build extension modules:

       f2py -c [<options>, <config_fc options>, <extra options>] <fortran files>

       (3) To generate signature files:

       f2py -h <filename.pyf> ...< same options as in (1) >

DESCRIPTION

       This program generates a Python C/API file (<modulename>module.c) that  contains  wrappers
       for  given  Fortran  or  C  functions so that they can be called from Python.  With the -c
       option the corresponding extension modules are built.

OPTIONS

       -h <filename>
              Write signatures of the fortran routines to file <filename> and exit. You can  then
              edit  <filename>  and use it instead of <fortran files>. If <filename>==stdout then
              the signatures are printed to stdout.

       <fortran functions>
              Names of fortran routines for which  Python  C/API  functions  will  be  generated.
              Default is all that are found in <fortran files>.

       skip:  Ignore fortran functions that follow until `:'.

       only:  Use only fortran functions that follow until `:'.

       :      Get back to <fortran files> mode.

       -m <modulename>
              Name  of  the  module;  f2py  generates a Python/C API file <modulename>module.c or
              extension module <modulename>.  Default is ´untitled´.

       --[no-]lower
              Do [not] lower the cases in <fortran files>. By default, --lower is assumed with -h
              key, and --no-lower without -h key.

       --build-dir <dirname>
              All f2py generated files are created in <dirname>. Default is tempfile.mkdtemp().

       --overwrite-signature
              Overwrite existing signature file.

       --[no-]latex-doc
              Create (or not) <modulename>module.tex.  Default is --no-latex-doc.

       --short-latex
              Create    'incomplete'    LaTeX    document   (without   commands   \documentclass,
              \tableofcontents, and \begin{document}, \end{document}).

       --[no-]rest-doc
              Create (or not) <modulename>module.rst.  Default is --no-rest-doc.

       --debug-capi
              Create C/API code that reports the state of the wrappers during runtime. Useful for
              debugging.

       -include´<includefile>´
              Add  CPP  #include  statement  to  the  C/API code.  <includefile> should be in the
              format of either `"filename.ext"' or `<filename.ext>'.  As a  result  <includefile>
              will  be  included just before wrapper functions part in the C/API code. The option
              is depreciated, use `usercode` statement in signature files instead.

       --[no-]wrap-functions
              Create Fortran subroutine wrappers to Fortran  77  functions.  --wrap-functions  is
              default because it ensures maximum portability/compiler independence.

       --help-link [..]
              List system resources found by system_info.py. [..] may contain a list of resources
              names. See also --link-<resource> switch below.

       --quiet
              Run quietly.

       --verbose
              Run with extra verbosity.

       -v     Print f2py version ID and exit.

       --include_paths path1:path2:...
              Search include files (that f2py will scan) from the given directories.
