Hello, Jacek
I think in long term it would be better to "move" CERNLIB under ROOT
like we did
http://root.cern.ch/root/htmldoc/TCL.html
for
http://wwwinfo.cern.ch/asdoc/shortwrupsdir/f110/top.html
http://wwwinfo.cern.ch/asdoc/shortwrupsdir/f112/top.html
It takes more effort since one has to provide the test suite as well (micky program)
but it worth to try.
On one hand it is still the same well-known and well-documented CERNLIB "interface" and
CERNLIB algorithm.
On another hand it is the regular C++ class already. It opens the door to some OO development
and it is the platform independent. It is not case for direct Fortran call. One needs to take
in account many different Fortran compilers / platforms in account Have a look inside of cfortran.h
to see what I am speaking about).
My proposal if you have time to add new CERNLBI wrappe may be you can add the extra methods
to TCL class instead.
I have C++ version of the "micky" test suite. That can be expanded to test new entries.
