Hello Moez,
support for FORTRAN 77 has been deprecated for a coupe of years now. The reason
for this is twofold:
- All Fortran compilers we know of support Fortran 90/95 and later. So
we decided to put our limited resources into the newer standards. The newer
standards have a large number of advantages in comparison to FORTRAN 77, such
as the use of arrays and array sections and checking the argument lists against
the definition. This greatly reduces the number of mistakes you can make.
- When this was announced several years ago, we did not receive any
complaints.
Could you explain in some detail what makes you use FORTRAN 77, instead of
FORTRAN 95 or newer? There may be a relatively simple path to using the F95
bindings - you can still use most F77 constructs with an F95 compiler (with the
exception of some very old features, F95 is a "superset" of F77, though most
compilers will still support all of F77). You would only have to learn a few
basic things regarding F95 to continue using PLplot.
Regards,
Arjen

Dear developers,
I no longer find the source code for the examples in fortran 77 !
this is my favourite language and I am wondering if will be removed from the
