NAME

       binfmtf-interpreter - binfmt_misc fortran handler

SYNOPSIS

       binfmtf-interpreter fortran-source-file-name [command-line opions ...]

DESCRIPTION

       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.

ENVIRONMENT

       G77    The compiler used.  The default is to use g77

       BINFMTCTMPDIR

              Temporary directory used for binary and execution.

              Falls back to $TMPDIR $TEMPDIR or /tmp

       BINFMTC_DEBUG
              enables debug output if set.

       BINFMTC_G77_OPTS
              Additional G77 options.  Use BINFMTC_DEBUG to verify the options being passed on to
              g77.

              The default is  -O2 -Wall
