Graphics and Windows Programming and Fortran
============================================
This can be broken down into
Simple graphics programming using a library
visual interface via raw windows programming
visual interface via visual development environment
Here are some of the library and development
offerings.
dislin
------
DISLIN is a high-level plotting library for displaying data as curves, polar
plots, bar graphs, pie charts, 3D-color plots, surfaces, contours and maps.

ginomenu
--------
GINOMENU is a subroutine toolkit for developing GUI applications under
Windows. It provides extensive window and widget building modules allowing
professional user-interfaces to be created under Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP
without the need to get involved in MFC, API or mixed-language programming.

opengl
------
OpenGL is the premier environment for developing portable, interactive 2D
and 3D graphics applications. Since its introduction in 1992, OpenGL has
become the industry's most widely used and supported 2D and 3D graphics
application programming interface (API), bringing thousands of applications
to a wide variety of computer platforms. OpenGL fosters innovation and
speeds application development by incorporating a broad set of rendering,
texture mapping, special effects, and other powerful visualization
functions. Developers can leverage the power of OpenGL across all popular
desktop and workstation platforms, ensuring wide application deployment.

winteractor
-----------
http://www.polyhedron.co.uk/
Winteracter is a modern GUI toolset for the Fortran 90/95 programming
language. It consists of various visual development tools and a substantial
subroutine library. Versions are available for most Fortran 9x compilers.

Microsoft Windows graphics programming
--------------------------------------
This can be done in a variety of ways.
The following is a good book with examples of doing this
using Compaq Visual Fortran.
Norman Lawrence, Compaq Visual Fortran: A Guide
to Creating Windows Applications.
He also has coverage of opengl.
It is also possible to develop the visual
interface using Visual Basic and call fortran dlls.
If you have Compaq Visual Fortran
then the on-line Programmers Guide
has coverage of mixed language programming
with examples.
The following compilers offer intergrated support for Windows
programming under .NET.
Lahey/Fujitsu
http://www.lahey.com/
PRO for Windows adds a Fortran-smart Windows editor, a debugger, an AUTOMAKE
make utility, and an enhanced Winteracter Starter kit (WiSK) for creating
true Windows programs with Fortran, and a Coverage Analysis Tool that
detects unexecuted code and performs range of operation checking. The PRO is
compatible with Visual C++, Visual Basic, and Delphi and also includes
Fujitsu’s SSL2 Math Library and Visual Analyzer (see below).
Salford Software
http://www.silverfrost.com/11/ftn95/overview.asp
FTN95 for .NET, including integrated Help and Debugger, is supplied bundled
with FTN95 for Win32 and, optionally, with Microsoft Visual Studio for .NET.
A low-cost, fully-featured personal edition is also available.
