sorry if this is a little off topic, but it's the most relevant newsgroup i
could find.

i understand that the GCC compiler that is central to DJGPP is capable of
compiling not only C and C++ but also various other languages such as
Fortran, Ada, Pascal etc. I've tried writing a simple fortran program, using
RHIDE, and telling it specifically to compile it as fortran, but it always
says 'Bad command or file name'. The fortran source file is saved as a .fpp
file and it is in a project. Another problem is that none of the source is
highlighted like it would be if it was in C++ - the whole lot is written in
yellow.

if anyone knows how to fix this, please enlighten me! :O)
