The automatic conversion of Fortran 77 to C can be accomplished using f2c, but the generated code is difficult to read and maintain, and needs to be linked with various non‐standard run‐time libraries which provide input/output and mathematical routines. This paper describes tools that have been developed at NAG Ltd. to automatically replace non‐standard run‐time f2c input/output functions with their equivalent functions. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
