If you're using an f95 compiler and planning to write new code, then you're
better off using the new source form exclusively. If you have to deal with a
small amount of old code too, then you can convert it easily to the new
source form, for instance with the program at
ftp.numerical.rl.ac.uk/pub/MRandC/convert.f90 .

Best of luck,
