Re: [wwwdocs, gfortran) Finally an update to our web page

Thanks for working on this, Jerry.


I was surprised about this being a whole new page as opposed to a diff
even though the content is not completely different, and it seems this
is caused by the editor you have been using?

<HEAD>
      <META HTTP-EQUIV="CONTENT-TYPE" CONTENT="text/html; charset=utf-8">
      <TITLE>GNU Fortran -- Free number crunching FORALL!</TITLE>
      <META NAME="GENERATOR" CONTENT="OpenOffice.org 3.1  (Linux)">
      <META NAME="CREATED" CONTENT="0;0">
      <META NAME="CHANGEDBY" CONTENT="Jerry DeLisle">
      <META NAME="CHANGED" CONTENT="20100103;7532800">
</HEAD>

We don't use these <META> tags and all tags need to be written in lower case (per the XHTML standard we are using, though I guess at one point we'll switch to HTML 5).

Sadly there are also all sorts of weird formatting directives that OpenOffice seems to have introduced on its own which break the page
in the context of gcc.gnu.org.


I tried to clean it up, get all the names right, and make it read clearly and succinctly.

I would like to help with this change, alas with the current result that OpenOffice spit out, I am not sure how to do this short of manually comparing the two versions character by character. :-(

If editing HTML directly is a problem for you, I can offer to do this
on your behalf if you tell me which changes in contents to make.

Gerald
