PAR is presently only available to ADAM programmers. Only the normal ADAM startup commands need be issued to access routines in the PAR library. These are
$ ADAMSTART $ ADAMDEV $ PAR_DEV
and they will ensure that all necessary definitions are made for compilation and linking.
PAR is distributed as a shareable image, and it is included in the ADAM ALINK command. So to link an ADAM A-task called PROG you just enter
$ FORTRAN PROG $ ALINK PROG
