The routines are in C, not Fortran.  If you have Visual C++ you should be 
able to build them into a DLL and use dll.load in the code.  However, as 
this was written for S-PLUS 6.x, it is quite possible that the S code will 
not work on S-PLUS 2000.

There is a version of the Watcom compilers available for free at
www.openwatcom.org: I haven't tried them since S-PLUS 2000 was already 
well obselete before they were released.  But they, Borland C++ and the 
MinGW port of gcc (amongst others) are capable of making DLLs that can be 
used with S-PLUS 2000.
