HostNm(Name)
HostNm: INTEGER(KIND=1) function.
Name: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(OUT).
Intrinsic groups: unix.
Description:
Fills Name with the system's host name returned by
gethostname(2), returning 0 on success or a nonzero error code
(ENOSYS if the system does not provide gethostname(2)).
On some systems (specifically SCO) it might be necessary to link the
“socket” library if you call this routine.
Typically this means adding `-lg2c -lsocket -lm'
to the g77 command line when linking the program.
