Abstract The RAYGUN gamma-ray analysis code (a descendant of GAMANAL and GRPANL) has been converted from FORTRAN IV to RATFOR and ported to the IBM PC environment. The history of the code and some of the problems encountered during the conversion are discussed. The converted code was then used to analyze the IAEA G-1 Intercomparison Spectra as one measure of the codes performance. The results of the analyses showed that although the intrinsic peak finding and multiplet resolution capabilities of the code are a bit weak, the UPPER-LIMIT and LIBRARY-SEARCH options work quite well. When appropriate gamma-ray libraries are created, the overall performance of the code is quite satisfactory. The RAYGUN code runs on an IBM PC or clone with 256 Kbytes of RAM.
