Matt, Jeff and List members,

It took me some time to find a download for version of Xcode that was compatible with my OS and gfortran. I installed Xcode 3.1.4 and the gfortran-42-5577.pkg file from the link Matt sent. I put the feff702.f file and the feff.inp file in the same folder. I used the x11 terminal to cd into that folder and the tried the commands that you suggested, but neither worked. When I try "gfortran -o feff702 feff702.f" I get the message "gfortran: command not found" and when I type "./feff702" I get the message "./feff702: No such file or directory". Any idea as to what I am doing wrong or suggestions as to what to try next?

Also, to answer Matt's question: I want to use Feff7 because I am trying to compare my results to fits done my someone else, who used Feff7, and I want to change as little as possible for my analysis.

Thank you,
George

Following Matt's example, you would go to the directory where you build the program. You need to have a valid feff.inp file inside that directory.

At the prompt (%), could be different depending on what shell you are running, type:

./feff702

It should run.
