I have met no problems using F90 together with f2py -- in fact usually it can bind f90 code to python completely automatically with no need to write extra glue code. The only problem was setting up Intel Fortran compiler and making it play along with f2py, but I suppose the compiler business will become easier when gfortran matures. -- Pauli Virtanen -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
