inquire fortran intrinsic functions with g77

[hongxun lee]

Hi, community, basic Qs related to FORTRAN on unix:

1. besides man and  info, any other commands to inquire infomation in unix?

2. i use both IRIX fortran90 and Cygwin g77:

how to inquire the intrinsic functions (procedures) or other related info of
the fortran language (not the shell or system)?

for example, i want to know the detail options for 'open' or 'write', the
detail info for the data type 'double precision' or 'integer', etc

'man' sometimes gives useful infomation but i'm not sure the info given is
about the system or the fortran language.

What are the correct command formats?

Thanks

The g77 documentation and the man pages are assumed to be read *in
addition to* a book on Fortran 77 or at the very least, the Fortran 77
Standard:

Hope this helps,
