[f2py] trouble with simple example

[Brad Reisfeld]

Hi,
I am a new user of f2py. I just downloaded and installed the software
(2.13.175-1222) and am trying out the first example in the manual.

I followed the example and generated the 'foo.f' and 'bar.f' files, created
and edited the signature file (f2py foo.f bar.f -m foobar -h foobar.pyf),
and created a C/API module (f2py foobar.pyf). However, as you can see in the
session below, there is no Makefile-foobar created, so I can't proceed to
create the shared module.

What am I missing here?

Also, according to the 'README.txt' file, there should be some tests in a
'test-site' directory that one can run to assure proper functionality. I
couldn't find this directory.

Thanks for your help.

-Brad
