Go read my post again. You have the sequence wrong.

No, I got it right.

(1) Correct the spelling of Fortran. If someone spells your
name as Lindull would you not correct her?

And I described this as the first rudeness. Why? It's completely
immaterial to the actual thing the OP was asking about. At best,
it's a postscript to your note, not the #1 thing to say.

(2) Point OP to www.fortran.com to follow numerous links.
(3) Provide my opinion that restricting oneself to a 30 year
old standard is probably not a good thing.

And (3) is the second rudeness. Which the OP probably read long
before he went to www.fortran.com.

So, basically, the sequence is correct. But if you like quibbling
instead of actually trying to understand my criticism, suit yourself.

My posting was intended for you and other folks who deliver the two
rudenesses, not the OP.

I completely missed your bloodless coupe to seize control
of c.l.f as it hall monitor. Should we send our posts to
Greg "Ms. Manners" Lindull for approval in the future?

It's really lame to make claims like that response to criticism.
Isn't it more interesting to respond to what I actually said, instead?

Your call.
