Simply Fortran 4.0

Just moments ago, we released Simply Fortran 4.0!  We've packed in a lot of changes, improvements, and new features, so we have a new blog post explaining all the changes that are here.

Finally Simply Fortran will support alternate compilers.  While we're still shipping GNU Fortran (version 16.1!) on Windows, the development environment can also employ flang or WebFortran with a simple dropdown selection (and the user installing either of them).  On Windows, Simply Fortran can also use WSL directly to compile Linux executables or debug them from within the development environment.

On Linux, users will notice a pretty major overhaul of the look-and-feel of the development environment.  Simply Fortran should look more at home and interact correctly with modern Linux desktops.  And our compiler selection also works on Linux!

Unfortunately, we do not have a macOS release, nor do we plan on one.  The blog entry has more on that decision.
