free fortran 90/95 ide?

[Darien]

So what's a good IDE for fortran? I've tried force, but it's 77.

Thanks.

I have absolutely no way to judge if it's good or not

Fortran or the IDE?

Trial and error. Most IDEs operate similary. There will always be tools that you wil never use and tools that if you knew about them would save some headaches.

If there is no user manual for the IDE, try to either find a book and/or contact the vendor for leads on how to utilize it effectively.

Yeah, I'm just used to using Force, and hitting a compile/execute button after opening a Fortran file. Back to playing!

Most IDEs will have a button/icon for the compile of the current selected/active source file; a build button; and a run/execute button.

There will be buttons for standard file manipulation of the current file (like most Windows programs have) and then buttons specifically related to either programming and/or the compiler actions.

Best bet would be to look at the tool tips assigned to each button and figure out the association to the current file/project. Then do the same for the menu options.

This method spends a lot of time and seems redundant/wasteful, but without a user manual and/or a human guide, it will at least allow you to get a glimmer of what is available from that IDE.

Good luck.
