And so we come full circle, 50 years of technological advancement have
allowed us to run FORTRAN! Again. I still can’t decide whether to cheer
or groan :wink:

However, impressive, as all of RubyInline. Which reminds me, I should
toy with it again to see if I can make it play along with directory
names with spaces like I meant to two years ago. (Or did this happen to
be fixed since?)

I haven’t written any Fortran since 1990. I suppose it would come back
to me. 50 years, eh? Well … I wrote my first Fortran (II) programs
almost that long ago. At least the machines were solid-state. :slight_smile:

So you can write Fortran programs in any language!
