Hi Elliot,

Did you look at my online instructions?  You can also use a prebuilt 
distribution as Arjen suggests.  If you’re not actually on the mailing list but 
just sending to it so didn’t see that, he recommended 
http://www.equation.com/servlet/equation.cmd?fa=fortran 
<http://www.equation.com/servlet/equation.cmd?fa=fortran>. You would still need 
to make sure your PATH is set so that gfortran and the other binaries you’d 
need are visible.

Unless you are adept with the Windows command line, you should look into a 
graphical development environment.  The problem with those is that most don’t 
support Fortran well or at all.  The two free, cross-platform ones I know that 
do are Geany and Code::Blocks.  Geany is more like a nice editor with some 
buttons for compiling and running (and it can run a Makefile) whereas 
Code::Blocks is closer to a traditional IDE.  Both may expect you to be using 
gfortran and would require some configuration if you wanted to use the Intel 
oneAPI option.  Easy to do, but an extra step to keep in mind.

VSCode is all the rage but I fought with it just to try to use it for C++ and 
didn’t want even to try Fortran.
