NAME
     PXFFASTEXIT - Terminates a Fortran program

SYNOPSIS
     SUBROUTINE PXFFASTEXIT (istatus)
     INTEGER istatus

IMPLEMENTATION
     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, and IRIX systems

STANDARDS
     IEEE standard interface for FORTRAN 77

DESCRIPTION
     The PXFFASTEXIT subroutine uses _exit(2) to terminate a process.
     PXFFASTEXIT ends the execution of a Fortran program.

     The following is the valid argument for this routine:

     istatus   A default integer input variable containing the status to be
               returned to the parent process of the terminated process.

     On IRIX systems, this routine is in libfortran.so which is linked by
     default when compiling programs with the MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler
     or when compiling programs with the -craylibs option to the MIPSpro
     F77 compiler.

     When using the CF90 compiler or MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler on
     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, or IRIX systems, all arguments must be of default
     kind unless documented otherwise. On UNICOS and UNICOS/mk, default
     kind is KIND=8 for integer, real, complex, and logical arguments; on
     IRIX systems, the default kind is KIND=4.

NOTES
     Replace the subroutine reference to EXIT or _exit() with a subroutine
     call to PXFFASTEXIT.

EXAMPLES
                PROGRAM PXFTEST
                INTEGER ISTATUS
                IERROr = 2
                CALL PXFFASTEXIT(ISTATUS)
          !
          !  PRINT should not be executed if the call to PXFFASTEXIT
          !  is successful.
          !
                PRINT *,'FAILED: PXFFASTEXIT CALL RETURNED'
                END
