Thanks Ralph for all your continuous help! I don't know what I would do
without you!
I have one more dilemma... The tests programs are in fortran... I am
trying the 'master makefile' case and I have that so far:
TESTS = test/forward/Example1_Simple/Example1_Simple.f90 \
test/k_matrix/Example1_Simple/Example1_Simple.f90
check_PROGRAMS = $(TESTS)
TESTS_ENVIRONMENT =
I am guessing I need to do something with TESTS_ENVIRONMENT but I am not
sure how to set it up..... I can't find an example with fortran.. Would
you mind putting me in the right direction one more time?
Thanks a lot,
Cheers,
Eve-Marie
