Unlike other unix systems I have used, core dumps don't occur in the current folder, but are dumped in /core. This is a feature of the operating system. I didn't find any mention of it in the man pages. Go figure. In any case it does work.

In a large fortran program I would like to get the system to do a core dump so I can poke around the symbol table at my leisure. I have attempted to do so with a small test c program (compiled using Apple's developer tools). ulimit coredumpsize cat dumpcore.c #include <stdio.h>...

I assume you are referring to f2c from bell laboratories (available from netlib). I have already ported that. You are correct in stating that many people use it, but it is somewhat more fragile than a true fortran compiler (not sure how good g77 is) and in particular in this case as the...

I have the darnest problem in my os x beta. In the termnal app the backslash key doesn't generate a backslash but seems to act as a deadkey generating four of the key strokes of the key that follows (e.g. worthless). This is on a JIS keyboard G4. Anyone have any idea how I can rewire the...

I have already downloaded the developer tools. The cc is "based" upon gcc (an old version). They did not port g77, although g++, objective c, and c are there. Unfortunately, I have a large fortran program to compile...

As the subject says - has anyone ported g77 (part of the gcc) compiler package. I downloaded gcc from http://www.gnu.org as well as the new config files for darwin and discovered that gcc is not supported in the 2.95 release (meaning more work than just compiling I guess). I have ported f2c...

The standard root command, mount works fine. You must specify the file system type as afp, (this was actually documented in an earlier message on this server). Although it is not documented in the man page for mount you simply specify: mount -t afp afp://server/share /mnt where mnt is a...

When using CpMac (or the aqua interface - the result is the same), I sometimes get the error message -43 "could not determine if entry is a file or folder" when I do a recursive copy. Any idea of what the scoop is here and a workaround. Thanks for any help you can offer.

I need to access japanese fonts in the terminal application. From first appearances it would seem that much of OS X is multilingual in nature and it should be possible to use Japanese in the terminal window. Any ideas on how to do it?

I have compiled and installed f2c from bell-labs under os x public beta (2E14) without trouble. I have applied f2c to several programs with success, but upon trying to compile (actually link) a large program, ld blew up in my face with a "relocation overflow for relocation entry" error message...
