[comp.lang.fortran] EFL ....

I have worked with EFL to some extent.  The EFL language is pretty nice
and EFL is in fact a compiler and not a preprocessor.  Although it gives
options for various "dialects" of Fortran output what actully comes out
is Fortran IV.  That is, don't get your hopes up for seeing any
"ELSEIF"'s, etc.  Also, EFL seems to be very buggy.  Try a "do loop" with
the lower bound 0.  I also encountered lots of problems with "write"'s.
My feeling is that this is probably not a well maintained piece of software
and I advise using caution with it.
