Question

I typed the source code in WordPad and saved it as addition.f90 but, unfortunately, the only options Windows provides are text files, rtf's, and so forth.

I am using the G95 compiler for Windows.

Was it helpful?

Solution

In the WordPad Save dialog, type the filename in double quotes, e.g. "addition.f90". This will override the default extension.

OTHER TIPS

I suggest you use a decent text editor instead. Have a look at notepad++, VIM, GNU Emacs or similar.

To rename a file in Windows you either use the command prompt:

rename file.f90.rtf file.f90

Or you can use the Windows explorer. Make sure you set it up to display file extensions. Under Tools | Folder Options, unselect 'Hide extensions for known file types'. To rename a file, either select it and press F2, or right-click and select Rename.
