# [M_process](https://urbanjost.github.io/M_process/man3.html)
## Name
*M_process* - read and write lines to or from a process from Fortran via a C wrapper
## Description
The M_process Fortran module ( A fortran-lang.org [package](https://fortran-lang.org/packages/) )
reads and writes from processes by calling the C popen(3c) procedure.
__NB. These procedures require a platform that supports POSIX routines
and the popen(3c) procedure in particular__.
## Download and Build using make(1)
Just download the github repository, enter the src/ directory and run make:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/urbanjost/M_process.git
cd M_process/src
# change Makefile if not using one of the listed compilers
# for gfortran
make clean
make F90=gfortran gfortran
# for ifort
make clean
make F90=ifort ifort
# for nvfortran
make clean
make F90=nvfortran nvfortran
# optionally
make test # run the unit tests (needs M_framework(3f) module)
make run --example "*" # run all the demo programs from the man-pages
make help # see other developer options
```
This will compile the M_process module and optionally build all the
example programs from the document pages in the example/ sub-directory
and run the unit tests.
## Supports FPM 
#### (registered at the [fpm(1) registry](https://github.com/fortran-lang/fpm-registry) )
Alternatively, download the github repository and
build it with fpm ( as described at [Fortran Package
Manager](https://github.com/fortran-lang/fpm) )
```bash
git clone https://github.com/urbanjost/M_process.git
cd M_process
fpm build
fpm test
```
or just list it as a dependency in your fpm.toml project file.
```toml
[dependencies]
M_process = { git = "https://github.com/urbanjost/M_process.git" }
```
## Demo Programs
The man-pages contain small sample programs that have been extracted
and placed in the [example/](example/) directory.
