I think Language Systems fortran is excellent, and is well integrated
with MPW.  It uses the same command line switches as MPW pascal to generate
68881/2 math chip calls.  It also has an -extended switch to
force all fortran REAL types to Mac Extended type.  This is what I use
to compile for MacII class machines:
     Fortran loopcalc.f	-3 -extended -u 0 -mc68020 -mc68881 
Just leave out the -extended -mc... switches to compile for standard
SANE.  BTW, LS Fortran (esp. with the 68881 direct calls) generates very
fast code.
