NAME

       ncargf90 - Command for compiling Fortran code that uses the NCAR Graphics low-level utilities

SYNOPSIS

       ncargf90 [-ngmath] [-smooth] [-quick] [-super] [-agupwrtx] [-ictrans] [-noX11] ...

DESCRIPTION

       ncargf90  is a script that invokes the FORTRAN 90 compiler/linker with the proper NCAR Graphics LLU (low-
       level utility) libraries.  Arguments presented above  are  associated  with  NCAR  Graphics.   All  other
       arguments and options are identical to the f90 command on your particular machine; arguments that include
       quoted strings may have to be enclosed in single quotes.

       NOTE:  ncargf90  cannot  be used to compile NCAR Graphics Fortran programs that call the HLUs (high-level
       utilities).  You must use nhlf90 instead.  See the nhlf90 man page for more information.

       In order to run ncargf90, you must have  your  NCARG_ROOT  environment  variable  set  to  the  directory
       pathname  where  the NCAR Graphics libraries, binaries, and include files were installed.  If you are not
       sure what NCARG_ROOT should be  set  to,  please  check  with  your  system  administrator  or  the  site
       representative  for  NCAR Graphics.  If the NCAR Graphics libraries, binaries, and include files were not
       installed under one root directory, then you will  need  to  set  the  environment  variables  NCARG_LIB,
       NCARG_BIN, and NCARG_INCLUDE instead.  Please see "man ncargintro" for more information.

       Note that, on some systems, if you supply your own binary libraries in addition to the ones automatically
       referenced by ncargf90, all the libraries must have been created in a similar fashion.

       OPTIONS

       -ngmath
              Links in the NCAR Graphics ngmath library.

       -smooth
              Link in the "smooth" objects.

       -quick Link in the "quick" objects.

       -super Link in the "super" objects.

       -agupwrtx
              Link in the "agupwrtx" library.

       -ictrans
              When  ncargf90  is  invoked  with the this option, the resulting executable will, upon invocation,
              send its metafile output to the translator ictrans  . The environment variable  GRAPHCAP  must  be
              set to a valid graphics output device whenever the executable is executed.

       -noX11 Do not link in the X library when linking the code.

              By default, ncargf90 will load the X11 library when linking your Fortran program.  This is because
              the  GKS  library  now  has an X11 driver.  If you try running ncargf90 and the compiler complains
              that it cannot find the library for X11, then try running ncargf90 -L/xxx/yyy/zzz program.f  where
              /xxx/yyy/zzz is the path leading to your X11 library.  If you do not have the X11 library, or else
              you just don't want it to be loaded, you can use the -noX11 option.
