Appendix  CEight-Character FORTRAN Names




Some FORTRAN compilers on machines that NCSA supports, such as UNICOS FORTRAN (CFT77) on the CRAY-2 system, only accept identifier names that are eight or fewer characters. Therefore, a set of equivalent names has been devised that can be used when programming with one of these compilers. Table C.1 contains official names, together with the shorter, less descriptive versions. Both sets of names are supported on all HDF-supported machines.
