- and there is also the gnu project for a public domain fortran 77
- compiler, a.k.a. "g77". the compiler is currently in alpha test.
- for more information (in particular, how to subscribe to the
- info-gnu-fortran list), finger -l fortran@gnu.ai.mit.edu.
- this is a true compiler, not a translator. however, it
- relies on gcc for the final pass(es) (at least this is
- what i have understood).
