Strange response to /OPTIONS compiler option

Hello!

When compiling a Fortran source code using FTN95 v.4.90 personal, the compiler options only work when typed on the command line. As soon as I use /options <file> to make the compiler take the options from the given file, an error message 'More than one source file specified' is output. When I specify exactly the same compiler options as contained in the <file> on the command line, the compiler performs perfectly well.

ftn95 test.for /fixed_format /dreal --> compilation without any errors

ftn95 test.for /options deb.opt --> More than one source file specified

Contents of deb.opt: /fixed_format /dreal

Can anybody help me ?

Compiler options should be listed in the file named ftn95.cfg located in your project's directory. It must contain all options you need typed like this:

/ERRORLOG /LGO /OPTIMISE /PENTIUM

You don't have to use the name of this file calling ftn95, it reads configuration file automatically, by default.

This works OK for me. Perhaps you have some extra characters in deb.opt that FTN95 is trying to interprete as an extra source file.
