This document explains about the necessary preparation to use the gtool4-beta library/tools with Linux and the Fortran compiler manufactured by Fujitsu Kyushu Engineering, Ltd. (hereafter, this compiler is called as FQS-frt). There may be situations that some modification becomes necessary though this document is helpful with most UNIX systems.
Following libraries should be necessary for gtool4 library to work.
Of cource, you must have Fortran 90 and C compilers.
please consult http://www.gfd-dennou.org/arch/dcl .
Refer to the document of DCL in the first. Because it has a configure script, DCL will be able to be installed easily. For example there is a function of system dependence in DCL in such cases as the acquisition of the command line argument. Because it isn't so smart, configure may not be able to set these up properly. But, it doesn't cause failure even if it is left configured because it isn't being used for present gtool4.
Unix version of DCL-F90-interface is available at http://www.gfd-dennou.org/arch/dcl/dcl-dvlp/dcl-f90-unix/dcl-f90-linux/.
When you expand the tarball, a dcl-f90 directory appears. Edit Mkinclude appropriately.
NetCDF is available at http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/ .
I have used netcdf-3.4, which is saved at http://www.gfd-dennou.org/arch/gtool4/needed/netcdf-3.4.tar.Z . It is sufficient if an attached document is referred to. But, because it isn't expected, the combination of Linux+FQSfrt requires some modification. My modifications are saved at http://www.gfd-dennou.org/arch/gtool4/needed/netcdf-3.4-patch.txt .
