Stupid me, to 20 years ago when I studied Fortran 77, I thought it was obsolete :-) I hope they at least have loops now, and who knows, it may even support Hmm.... Hmm... recursion :-D .

No, Fortran is still in big use, and yes it is obsolete. However, it has some features people like, like local arrays that are dimensioned at procedure call time. I'm playing with the idea of implementing such a feature in FPC, like:

procedure x(const s:integer);

var a:array[0..s] of byte;

... or something.
