One of the worst problems I find with Windows is that using any kind of command line app quickly gets to be a major pain in the a**neck.

    If the command name is mis-spelt, or not in the path under unix, it would also have problems locating it. Why is this any worse under Windows?

    Come to that, if the command name is F77.exe, but the user/batch file invokes it as 'f77', Windows will still run it, if it is locatable, so if anything, it is slightly easier.

    Absoft's command line interface is indeed called "f77".
    I also set my path correct.
    But fellow monk Madcap Laughs gave the solution to this problem on the site he mentioned.
    Thanks thou.
