2.10 Using File Naming Conventions

Any input file name is valid. If the file name does not have an extension, the extension .f is assumed. As KAP processes a Fortran file it generates three output files - the optimized program file, the optional listing file, and the executable file.

The default output file names are as follows:

<file>.cmp.f - the optimized Fortran program from the kf77 driver
<file>.cmp - the optimized Fortran program from kapf
<file>.out - the annotated KAP listing file
a.out - the executable file

Other output file names can be specified with the -cmp and -list switches.

When KAP detects an error condition, KAP writes a message to standard error.
