Re: Is there a way in Fortran to designate an integer value as integer*8 ?

First, I include all of my 300+ common blocks as 200 files.  I converted
those separately and cleaned them up so that the static variables and
defines are easy to peruse and understand.  I delete all of the local
common block conversions by f2c in the subroutines and change them back
to include files.  An easy cleanup that I have to do 5,000 times (4,000
to go now plus the 100+ subroutines that we have modified for customers
since I started the conversion project two years ago).

I also removed the parameter adjustments from my copy of f2c.  It is a
little tricky but as you say, they are not legal code in C++.
