hey!  i just picked up a copy of Microsoft FORTRAN ($65 (educational
discount vs. $300+ retail)).  looks pretty good so far...

the question:  has anybody out there ported the PGPLOT plotting subroutine
package (created at Caltech by Tim Pearson) to the PC under MS FORTRAN?
i tried compiling all of the source (minus the drivers) on our VAX using
the /F77 switch, and all of it compiled with no errors or warnings.  this
tells me that it souldnt be too tough to port it (one could use the
graphics.lib supplied with the compiler to build the device driver...).

before i try, has anybody else already done this?  has anybody tried and
failed?  is it MUCH more difficult than to do than i think?

anybody?    anybody?    mr. beuler?


thanks....
