Added flag for fixed form

Probably we should follow the convention for gfortran -ffixed-form

do not silently ignore comments

Daniel Franke — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 15:21:50 -0000

Consider:
$ cat contline.f
! Comments may go anywhere ...
INTEGER a
&, b ! ... even here!
&, c
END

Looking t the actions reported by '--dump' (ofp-0.8.0), a reproduction of above could would result in:
INTEGER a, b, c
END

Which is perfectly valid and equivalent to the original source - for the parser at least. A human reader might disagree.
If comments would be reported, any user of ofp could ignore them by not implementing the respective hook if they are not needed for the application at hand.

add locations to actions

Matt Sottile — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 04:50:45 -0000

Currently actions do not contain any form of location information unless they have a token attached to the action. For example, an if statement action does not have any indication of where in the source code the if statement appears. For non-token elements, it would be useful to at least give a line number or range for the text that generated the action.

We talked about this at lunch - I just wanted to add it to the tracker so we wouldn't forget.
