Plato IDE: ".obj file not found"
The following code should cause any Fortran compiler to complain: 
       PROGRAM THING
       WRITE (*,*) "Hello from Thing!"
       END
       STOP
Either this is two programme-units (in Fortran-speak), in which case there should be a second END after the STOP, or the STOP should be before the END. The command-line FTN95 compiler gives: 
    NO ERRORS <THING>
    STOP
    *** More than one main program encountered
    *** Missing END PROGRAM
    2 ERRORS
    *** Compilation failed
In contrast, compilation under Plato reports no errors, but linking reports "Cannot find thing.obj" --- this is because the compilation failed.

If you get such problems, please try using the command-line interface.
