Thanks! I agree -- many general purpose domains are lacking Fortran libraries. Regarding DB access, Arjen Markus has an interface to SQLite, but I'm not aware

Thanks! I agree -- many general purpose domains are lacking Fortran libraries. Regarding DB access, Arjen Markus has an interface to SQLite, but I'm not aware of anything else. As almost everything out there has a C API, getting it compatible with Fortran is a matter of doing the grunt work and writing the wrappers around the C functions. To me, the lack of such Fortran libraries just shows there hasn't been much need for it.
