Thanks for the fixes in 1.44 for the compiler option and the Help. Looks nice.

Regards

This bug has been fixed in the development version.

I wasn't aware of the limitation.  It's probably related to Windows as Simply Fortran is not explicitly limiting the length to the best of my knowledge.  I'll go see what I can do about this.

I eventually figured that out, but as a new user last year, I was a bit confused between what I saw in the interface, and what the SF help showed. Then when I tried the "keywords" and it came up empty, I was even more confused.

Again, none of this would be an issue if there were a way to explicitly set optimization level rather than relying on the global flags drop down.

On the -O1, one issue is that the "SF IDE" specifically mentions it ("Compiler Flags"), yet the drop down in the interface does not show such a choice.

A better solution might be a dedicated optimization selection box for both compilers (C and Fortran) to remove them from the drop down.  Then a level could simply be selected.

In regards to the help file, I've been negligent in fixing those sections.  The compiler reference is automatically generated, and I just didn't get that fixed.  I'll have a look today.

I'll also look into the empty index sections in the help file.

I see in Compiler options the choices -O, -O2, and -O3. There is no choice for -O1, yet the Help document makes reference to such a choice. Also, the GNU online documentation makes a distinction between -O1 and -O0, so it is not clear in SF what "-O" does because the choices for -O1 and -O0 are absent.

Lastly, if I go the SF Help -> Contents -> Compiler Reference and expand, the "Option Index" and "Keyword Index" sections are empty.

Thank you.
