Slightly lazy today. I'm trolling around for links to free FORTRAN compilers. I'll start googling and "ask.coming" but I'll graciously accept the wisdom of the lists.

Also, any tutorial links on Linux to OSX porting and FORTRAN.

Just a couple of thoughts: 1. Have a good think before you install Fink or Darwinports. Once installed you are no longer using a standard Darwin distribution but a Fink or Darwinports system. A lot of your libraries will become non-standard. This may be what you, but it might not be. I don't find them necessary, and Fink has caused me problems in the past.

2. The current distributions of the R statistics package for the Mac includes a full gcc C/C++/gfortran compiler which is used to build the distribution. This compiler works well and understands Apple specific gcc options like '-arch'.

3. Apple's developer web site has a lot of good stuff about porting autoconf based and other open source/Linux apps to OS X.

Have fun
