Thanks for the clarification.

I forgot there was a "Build before Launch" setting. I have turned this off to get the behaviour I want.

David,

Those messages are always displayed because "Build before Launch" is enabled in the Launch Options. Even when there are no changes, this option causes Simply Fortran to execute the Make utility to see if a build is necessary. Simply Fortran itself does not track the times when files have been updated (at least, not in this context). Instead, it relies on a tried-and-true Make utility to check the file times.

It could be improved, but that might require switching away from using Makefiles entirely, something I have been hesitant to do for a variety of reasons.

This is displayed when I run my project even when there is nothing to build (i.e. when everything is up to date for make).

With "Always Regenerate Makefile" checked, I get:

=========================
Generating Makefile... Okay
=========================

* Completed *

With "Always Regenerate Makefile" unchecked, I get:

=========================

*Completed *

Can these messages be eliminated when there is nothing to build and the makefile doesn't change?
