[Fwd: g77 data segment]

[Toon Moene <toon at moene dot indiv dot nluug dot nl>]

I got the following question, to which I don't know the answer.

Could an AIX guru reply to this (David ?) - that is, I assume that the
reference to `xlf' means that we're talking IBM here ...

Thanks in advance,

I have been reading the manual pages for GNU Fortran on the internet trying to
find an equivelent command for the -bmaxdata command from xlf Fortran. The
command from the xlf function states
'-bmaxdata:<bytes>
                  Specifies the maximum amount of space to reserve for the
                  program data segment, if you need more than 256Mb.'

I have not use g77 before and am looking for a similar command that will allow
up to 512Mb data segment. I would appreciate any help or advice you can give.

Thankyou

Chris Hulme
