FORTRAN90 Support Expanded

The availability of a FORTRAN90 compiler on ECN-supported machines is expanding. In the past, only NAGWare f90 Version 2.1 was available and only on the Solaris machines. Now, NAGWare f90 Version 2.2 is available on the HP machines. The HP command is f90 (or nagware) in usr/local/bin. Since usr/local/bin is in the ECN default search path, most HP users will not need to modify their search path to access f90.

On the Solaris systems, we will soon have a FORTRAN90 Sun compiler that will go in usr/opt/bin/f90. We anticipate the Sun f90 compiler will have all the features of the NAGWare f90 V2.1 compiler.

To avoid future name conflicts with the new Sun f90 compiler, we have moved the current NAGWare f90 command on the Solaris systems from usr/opt/bin/f90 to /usr/local/bin/nagware_f90.
