FAQ
Do I need to be administrator to install this?
No, the installer will install files to the AppData directory for the current user (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local).
How can I install stdlib with this?
First, run the installer, making sure that GFortran, fpm and Git are selected. After install, open up the commmand window using the Quickstart Fortran shortcut on the desktop or in the start menu. At the command window type setup-stdlib and press ENTER. This will fetch the latest version of stdlib and install it to the local GFortran installation.
Note: The setup-stdlib script only works with the GFortran installation provided with this installer - it cannot currently detect existing GFortran installations.
