A brief story
I started this project back in 1999 with a simple interface and only an editor inside. The purpose of all my effort was to help my college friends orphans of Watfive Fortran.
The Watfive interface that my friends and I were used to was a mess. First, I had to login remotely to Stanford University, the owner of Watfive my college had licenses. Then, I wrote all the program on a small green phosphorous screen. And after, with some sort of luck I tried to run it.
After a while Stanford had shutdown the Watfive and all of us were orphans of it. Being a computer addicted, I had the idea of developing my own interface for writing Fortran programs. That was the first version of Force.
At this moment, the Force is a complete IDE capable of compiling programs written in Fortran 77. Behind the scenes it uses the free G77 compiler from Gnu Compiler Collection (GCC).

Boa noite!
Estou com problemas para compilar uma série simples de comandos. Uso o Windows Vista e quando vou 'rodar' o programa que escrevi, o Force dá problema e fecha...
Poderia me ajudar?
Forte abraco e parabens pela ferramenta!
