Fortran compilers on Macs

[Janus Weil]

> I forgot to ask: there is a Mac server (12-processors) in my office. Someone installed a PGI-Fortran using a valid license, but it doesn't work. I tried to compile the simple "Hello World", but it returns a problem with the License Manager. I couldn't figure it out if the License Manager can run on a Mac.

Sorry but that questions is just *incredibly* inappropriate for this

Nope.
