Description

I have some Fortran77/90 files, seems rose couldn't parse them.

Rose use OFP as Fortran front-end and OFP only support Fortran 2003/2008. So rose couldn't support old Fortran actually?

Research direction

Start by tracing ROSE's OFP Fortran front-end and how it handles the reported Fortran77/90 files. Determine whether OFP or ROSE is the limiting component; done means representative Fortran77/90 input is successfully parsed.
