[comp.lang.fortran] Good P.D./Shareware compiler... for beginners...

mdoerner@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu (Mike R Doerner) (04/12/91)

   I am posting this message because I have not been able to find the
information from the university. I am currently enrolled in a class
that uses WATCOM v2.5 as a Fortran compiler. I believe that this is
copyrighted (or licenced) software. My financial status will allow me
only public domain or shareware software to be purchaced. I would like
to know your recomendations for an Amiga 500 or IBM (preferred) Fortran 77
compiler. Also, if there are any tutoral prgs. or docs. avalible it 
would be helpful. Finally, if it is a IBM prg., will it run on a
8088 Intel chip? Please leave me mail on the subject. Thank You.
