FORTRAN-77 Compiler (6024034)

Item number:          6024034

Announcement date:    1981-12-01
Availability date:    1982-04
Announcement letter:  281-127  THE IBM PERSONAL COMPUTER IS ENHANCED


From the announcement:

       UCSD p-System with UCSD Pascal* (6024016); UCSD Pascal
Compiler alone (6024033)
       UCSD p-System with FORTRAN-77 (6024017); FORTRAN-77 Compiler
alone (6024034)
       The UCSD p-System consists of an operating system and Pascal
and/or FORTRAN-77 for the IBM Personal Computer. The p-System
provides the programmer with an extended Version IV.0 of the
operating system, including a full-screen editor, program debugger,
graphics support, an assembler, file handler, native code
generator, and a print spooler. The language compilers generate
"p-code," a portable, machine-independent format. A native code
generator can be used to produce efficient object code for maximum
performance.

       The UCSD p-System consists of an operating system and either
one or two languages for the IBM Personal Computer. The p-System
provides the programmer with an extended Version IV.0 of the
operating system, including a full-screen editor, program debugger,
graphics support, an assembler, file handler, native code
generator, and a print spooler.  The system is available with
either UCSD Pascal, FORTRAN-77, or both languages.

       Highlights
.  The p-System provides an excellent environment for program
   development.
.  The language compilers generate "p-code," a portable,
   machine-independent format.
.  A Native Code Generator may be used to convert p-code to
   efficient code for better performance.
.  Machine-level reference and tutorial documentation is provided.
.  FORTRAN-77 is ANSI-1977 level, supporting a wide range of
   engineering and scientific applications
.  It provides extensions to UCSD Pascal for development and
   commercial programming.
.  Structured programming produces programs that are more efficient
   and easier to maintain.
       Installation/operation: The UCSD p-System, with either UCSD
Pascal or FORTRAN-77, is designed to run on an IBM Personal
Computer with a minimum of 64KB and two diskette drives.  A program
is entered via the p-System's editor, then compiled to p-code and
stored on diskette.  The p-code version can then be executed as
needed. The p-System filer maintains a library of user-written
programs on diskette.  For convenience, run-time or execution
routines may be moved to an application program diskette.
       Packaging: The three major p-System components are the
development (operating) system, FORTRAN-77 compiler, and UCSD
Pascal compiler.  They are packaged as four products on diskettes
with related publications. They are available as the development
system with a language. The second language is available with the
development system or at a later time.
-  p-System with UCSD Pascal       -   UCSD Pascal Compiler
-  p-System with FORTRAN-77        -   FORTRAN-77 Compiler
       Publications: Publications are packaged with diskettes for
the products described above. They are:
.  Development (p-System)
   -   Beginner's Guide for the UCSD p-System
   -   User's Guide for the UCSD p-System
   -   Internal Architecture Guide for the UCSD p-System
   -   Assembler Reference Manual for the UCSD p-System
.  FORTRAN-77 Compiler
   -   FORTRAN-77 Reference Manual for the UCSD p-System
.  UCSD Pascal Compiler
   -   UCSD Pascal Reference for the UCSD p-System
       Prerequisites: A minimum 64KB, two diskette drive system is
required to run the UCSD p-System, although some application
programs may execute in less memory. Run-time routines may be
packaged with application programs to provide the necessary
execution prerequisites, although licensing of such routines is
required for redistribution to others.
       Both 40- and 80-column display output is supported although
80-column displays (IBM Monochrome or customer-supplied
high-resolution monitors) are recommended.
       Customer responsibilities:  The customer is responsible for
making backup copies of the diskettes shipped with the product.
