<h3 class="section">6.2 Extensions not implemented in GNU Fortran</h3>
<p><a name="index-extensions_002c-not-implemented-324"></a>
The long history of the Fortran language, its wide use and broad
userbase, the large number of different compiler vendors and the lack of
some features crucial to users in the first standards have lead to the
existence of a number of important extensions to the language. While
some of the most useful or popular extensions are supported by the GNU
Fortran compiler, not all existing extensions are supported. This section
aims at listing these extensions and offering advice on how best make
code that uses them running with the GNU Fortran compiler.
