In this article, we will explore these different formats and how to open or use these files.

MUF and Fortran

The Fortran programming language is an imperative and procedural language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing. Fortran programming language variant MUF (Manchester University Fortran), uses the MUF file extension. Therefore, to open files with .muf extension that are associated with MUF (Manchester University Fortran), one would need to use a compatible Fortran compiler. Examples of these include the GNU Fortran (GFortran) and Intel Fortran Compiler (IFort).

It is an extension of Forth that includes features for multi-tasking and multi-user interaction and is commonly used in the creation of MUDs (Multi-User Dungeons). Opening these .muf files would require a text editor or a specific development environment that supports MUF such as TinyFugue.
