Hello Fortran programmers.
I have a couple of questions related to LF95:
1. How can I reduce the size of the executable image for a LF95
program? I am working on a program which compiles to a 1.5MB .EXE file
which can subsequently be zipped to 450K. The EM32 compiler used to
have a -pack switch, and I recall that an earlier version worked with
the SpaceMaker utility provided by a third party. Is there something
like that available for LF95?
2. I am using a system() call to invoke an external program. Is there
any way to control this window? The default configuration of the call
pushes this window to the front of the screen and interrupts whatever
else is running. I realize that the proper way to call an external
program would be as a DLL, but for initial development I prefer to use
the command line. I'd like to run in the background, however.
Thanks,
Tom
