Then I made a test file that calls iso_c_binding.mod to check for its existence in the FLASH4.8 dir, which did end up working, so I knew it was somewhere. Then I searched for it in Finder, and I realized its a blank file that gets created every time I compile, inside /FLASH4.8/object. So apparently the error arises when it tries to interpret literally nothing. How do I fix this? Please ask if you need more info.</span></div><div><span style="font-kerning: none;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-kerning: none;">Thank you!</span></div><div><span style="font-kerning: none;">- Sam</span></div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>flash-users mailing list</span><br><span>flash-users@flash.rochester.edu</span><br><span></span><br><span>For list info, including unsubscribe:</span><br><span>https://flash.rochester.edu/mailman/listinfo/flash-users</span><br></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
