Hi Fellow Fortran-ners (not necessarily by choice ...),

I would simply like to know if anyone has any information on the standard
Fortran compilers supplied for machines such as Sun, Apollo, DecStation,
and any other well-known workstations as regards extensions to F77.

Specifically, will they accept a program containing IMPLICIT NONE
(or equivalent IMPLICIT UNDEFINED A-Z),
DO [WHILE] .. END DO
Long variable names (e.g. 31 chars)
Inline comments (using "!")

I know that the IBM (VSFORT) and Cray (cft77) at CERN accept these.

Please mail as I don't read news regularly. If anyone's interested I'll post
the result later.

       Thanks,
		Andy Belk
