Hi Emilio--
        I have actually gotten ccm3.6 to run on a DEC Alpha with f77.
I'm sorry I don't have this more organized, because first we got it to
run on a Sun, then I made a couple more changes to get it to run on the
DEC, but here are a couple things you definitely need to do to get the
model to run on a DEC (using CPU = SUN):

1) In src/control/ccm3.F, comment out the 3 lines where 'iexcept'
appears, because there doesn't seem to be an 'ieee_handler' for the DEC.
2) Use the command 'limit stacksize 32000' before starting a model run to
increase the stacksize enough to be able to handle the model (unless
your machine automatically has the stacksize already set large enough).

There are also a few other things that I'm noticing are different between
the code I have running on the DEC and the original code, so you might
want to try making these changes if the model still isn't running for
you:

3) In src/control/ccm3.F, comment out the three lines

#ifdef SUN
#include <f77_floatingpoint.h>
#endif

4) In all files where there is an #if (defined SUN) statement followed by
a 'static' declaration or a 'save' statement, change the ifdef to

#if (defined OLD_SUN)

or do something else to prevent the ifdef block from being executed. The
files where we have done this are:

src/control/comhed.h (3 places in this file)
src/control/data.F
src/dynamics/eul/com3d.h
src/dynamics/eul/linemsac.F
src/dynamics/sld/com3d.h
src/dynamics/sld/scanslt.F

I hope that this helps you to get the model to run on your DEC, or at
least gives you a good start. Good luck!
