Abstract
This paper briefly summarizes experience with a Fortran preprocessor that simplifies the task of writing efficient and transportable mathematical software. The main part of the paper lists features in the preprocessor and other features that would have been useful to have.
This paper presents the results of one phase of research carried out at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under Contract NAS7-100, sponsored by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
