Text editor in Visual Studio

18 Feb 2008 7:29 #2799

Is it possible to use a Fortran specific text editor, such as the one in Plato3 in Visual Studio? The default editor disables the 'compile' and 'comment out' icons on the toolbar. I am using fixed format *.for files if that matters.

No, you get what you get. You can edit the files with any editor of course and VS will load them as they change.

I'm not quite sure what you mean - we have Fortran specific editors in Visual Studio and commenting of lines is available (both via the menus and from the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl-K Ctrl-C). Compile for a file is offered from the solution explorer if a file is part of a solution.
