Hello David,
Thank you very much for the clear and polite words.
If the topic is really *important* for the community, the it is the duty
of the originators
to convert their FORTAN programs to Python, and show some
*input* *output* data examples.

Rudi,
It is *not* anyone¡¯s duty to convert their Fortran to Python! Nor is it
their duty to show examples of show input or output, nor is it it their
duty to write the information in a coherent way.
I do however think writing the information in a coherent manner and showing
some examples of input and output would be *very* useful. Without the
information being written in a coherent way, it is of very little value.
Converting Fortran to Python seems to be taking things too far though.
Porting code has the possibility of introducing bugs. Anyone technically
competent enough to understand the content should be able to use a Fortran
compiler. If not, they should be able to find someone who can compile a
Fortran program.
