SETFIL(III)                 10/29/73                  SETFIL(III)







NAME

     setfil - specify Fortran file name



SYNOPSIS

     call setfil ( unit, hollerith-string )



DESCRIPTION

     Setfil provides a primitive way to associate an integer  I/O

     unit  number with a file named by the hollerith-string.  The

     end of the file name is indicated by  a  blank.   Subsequent

     I/O on this unit number will refer to the file whose name is

     specified by the string.



     Setfil should be called only before any I/O has been done on

     the  unit,  or  just after doing a rewind or endfile.  It is

     ineffective for unit numbers 5 and 6.



SEE ALSO

     fc (I)



BUGS

     The exclusion of units 5 and 6 is unwarranted.
