Huh?? Your "IBM guys" have given you an incompletely installed system. It is
true that there is no f77 but there definitely should be a cc and make. The
problem is that this stuff is part of the LPP called ADT (Advanced Dev.
Tools) which is seperate from the C compiler (vsc), so it seems that they
installed the C compiler LPP without ADT, as you found out NOT very useful!
Make and cc would also know when to call the C compiler and when to call
the fortran compiler without your having to do anything. My suggestion is
that you yell long and hard to get the rest of the needed tools on the
system.

Disclaimer: I speak for myself, not LCC nor IBM.
