f95 command

[Ingeniarius]

Dear all!
I installed recently Ubuntu 9.10. Since I am reactivating my Fortran usage, I installed gfortran compiler. What suprised me, is that I can compile my code both by using gfortran command and f95 command. How come?
Best regards!

They are both the same program. f95 is just a symbolic link to gfortran.

If you type which f95
you will get /usr/bin/f95

Find out what it actually is
Then type ls -l /usr/bin/f95
you will get /usr/bin/f95-> /etc/alternatives/f95
