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 C 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 C 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
