The LINPACK library resides on a Sun network. I'm told that since the LINPACK source is available, the thing to do would be to copy the source over to my NeXT and recompile the routines there. The problem is, LINPACK is all in Fortran, and I don't have a Fortran compiler. I don't want to go buy one just for this one project. Does anybody know of a way around this pickle? Are Sun executables compatible with NeXT, so that I could just copy the LINPACK library over from the Suns and use them without any changes?
