Changes and New Features in Version 1.7
This version has been substantially revised internally to use version 2.0 of
EMS,
which is implemented in C.
MERS now uses only the public interface to EMS (formerly a number of internal
EMS routines were called).
Because the lowest level is now in C, output of error message at the base
error reporting level is now done by C printf commands. On some systems this
can lead to incorrect sequencing of messages if other output is done by
Fortran WRITE.
A bug which caused the linker to report subroutine MSG_IFSET missing if
MSG_IFGET was called, has been corrected.
This section has been added to this document.
