Lahey Support

Hear, hear!!
I specially agree on the part about ELF90.
I have consistently written ELF90-compatible code (not
necessarily using Lahey's compiler though, sorry) for
a number of years now and it has certainly made my
programs easier to read and a lot easier to debug.
An ELF90 syntax checker will be most welcome since my
employer don't have Lahey compilers.
ELF90-compatible code is quality code, assuming the
algorithm is good of course :-).
Sincerely
Per Hakan Lundow
