For the last few years, I've been closely watching the progress of
Andy Vaught's G95 free Fortran-95 compiler (www.g95.org). Being
mostly stuck on Windows, I never really could find the time to try it
out on my other platforms. Yesterday, a standalone version for
Windows was finally made available for download. I tried it out on
the current application that I have been working on. It tends to
stress even commercial compilers because of my liberal mixing of old
and new Fortran syntaxes. Except for two trivial source code changes
(for the better) due to slightly sloppy but legal Fortran, my
application compiled AND executed flawlessly. Congratulations to Andy
and all the others that have worked with him over the years.
