There was a note the other day on one of the groups to the effect that a PD
fortran compiler/linker was posted to the SIMTEL msdos/fortran area.  You might
want to check out one of the archives.  Otherwise, if you want to give the kid
a break :-)), call Programmer's Shop and get a copy of the Lahey Personal
Fortran Compiler.  It about $90 and its perfect for typical course projects,
i.e. it uses the small model so you're limited to 64K of code and 64K of data.
