Help w/GNU Fortran

[Alejandro Parra Cordova]

 Hello,
 
 My name is Alejandro Parra and I'm a GNU Fortran user. I am having a
 problem that may look simple but I haven't been able to solve. I hope you
 can help me.
 
 I am using GNU Fortran version 0.5.19 running on the standard MS-DOS
 version that comes with Windows 95.
 
 When I compile a program, a lot of information (errors, warnings, etc.)
 regarding the compilation process is printed on the screen. The screen
 overflows with information so that I cannot see what was printed at the
 very beginning of the proceess, because by the time the compilation has
 finished, I cannot scroll back to the beginning.
 
 In order to solve this problem I have tried pausing the process, or
 sending the output to a file:
 
            g77 fortrancode.f > file.txt
 
 or even printing the information:
 
 	   g77 fortrancode.f > prn
 
 ,and nothing works.
 
 When I send to a file, a file.txt is created, only to find out that it is
 empty when I open it.
 
 Can you help  me?
 
 Yours,
 
 Alejandro Parra
