I am working on a Fortran module based on autosetup. It is fairly easy actually to do that and should fit in well with my Ftcl project (http://ftcl.sf.net). Much better than the batch file and shell scripts that I have now. (As the interfacing between Fortran and C has been formalized since the Fortran 2003 standard, I intend to revise the code to take advantage of that facility)
