Description

A FORTRAN 77 compiler for 16 bit OS/2 and DOS introduced in 1989 as version 5 and with some limited Windows 3 support in version 5.1 introduced a year later. In addition to the Fortran77 standard the compiler comes with some support for IBM VS FORTRAN and DEC VAX Fortran extensions . The company also supplied an optional IMSL Fortran Numerical Library.

Note that by the time version 5.1 hit the ground Microsoft was no longer calling the product using the traditional all caps FORTRAN77 naming convention, but simply Microsoft Fortran 5.1. This product was discontinued in 1993.
