Re: [photran] gfortran/photran installation questions

Hi,

If you are working in windows, a good alternative is the gcc distribution
from www.equation.com (Programming Tools -> Fortran, C, C++) distributed
under GPL. For 64 bits windows, you should download the 64 bits version of
gcc, which currently (version 4.6.2) supports both 32 and 64 bits targets.
You do not need cygwin installed.

Regards,

Fernando
