[photran-dev] Open Watcom help file

[Jeffrey Overbey <overbey2@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There is a help file in the Open Watcom Fortran compiler...

http://perforce.openwatcom.org:4000/@md=d&cd=//depot/openwatcom/bld/f77/help/&cdf=//depot/openwatcom/bld/f77/help/fortran.hlp&po=h&c=KAx@//depot/openwatcom/bld/f77/help/fortran.hlp?ac=64

...which is a decent reference for Fortran 77 statements and
intrinsics.  It would be pretty easy to integrate into Photran
(perhaps as a "help view"), and I bet we could talk some users into
updating it for later versions of Fortran.

However, it's released under the Open Watcom Public License -
http://www.openwatcom.org/index.php/Open_Watcom_Public_License

So, I guess I have two questions: (1) is this worth pursuing, and (2)
what are the chances their license is EPL-compatible?

P.S. I would have died for a copy of Watcom C/C++ back in the 90's...
who knew that 10 or 15 years later I could just download the entire 3
million lines of code and build the compiler myself...
