Okay. So you should be able to go for the socket approach, fairly
easily. Or possibly you could turn the whole thing into a C-callable
library, although I've no idea how easy it is to do that. (My
experience with FORTRAN - yes, not Fortran, the code was that old -
goes as far as eyeballing some of IBM's DB2 examples and translating
them into REXX. I've never actually used a Fortran compiler.)
