fortran's been in gcc main for a long time..dunno if the maemo port includes it though. And I've got a lot of hours logged in good ol' f77 too...I actually quite like the structured, "deterministic" feel of it. But I was an engineering student, not a computer science major...so it was usually about making a program to find out something we were actually interested in...ie a means to an end. Fortran was beautiful for that (after the punch card era was dead and buried, that is).

I spent my formattive years on FORTRAN. Also dropped an entire tray of cards with my program once. Wasted a lot of time getting FORTRAN IV to sort strings.

Hey lcuk, what am I looking at with the 2nd link?

Sorry for any ignorance, but isn't fortran now part of gcc, so maybe it already exists for the Nxx0 tablets?

ive also got another method for using vb projects in liqbase as well.
i have a vb addin on the windows side which will create a liqbase project complete with converted forms and custom usercontrols and ui and buttons and stuff all laid out and coded in c which includes a package and everything needed to create a basic standalone liqbase project.
its a shame right now it doesnt know how to bring in any basic code or to get the stuff out of .frx files (images) and it needs tinkering with afterwards, but its so close to being really simple to get a project started with liqbase
its very minimal in what it knows as well, it needs more work to deal with the other standard controls.
but it works, i just make a new project, play around laying out stuff based on a few preset vb form templates, and produce the skeleton code required to be filled in.

@lcuk
So, just to make sure I'm getting it. This liqbase skeleton/template C code is created using VB on a Windows box?
