Re: Inline::C Cookbook addition

Hi Rob,

You've made a very good point - thank you.

I am actually quite interested to update the FORTRAN recipe of the =
Cookbook also. The FORTRAN 2003 standard introduced interoperability =
with C features. This should greatly simplify invoking modern FORTRAN =
program units from Inline::C.

The example I have in mind is writing a FORTRAN MODULE that performs =
matrix multiplication using the MATMUL intrinsic function. The minimum =
FORTRAN compiler that would be used is G95, which does offer C =
interoperability.

Anyway, I'll think about this a bit more.

Cheers,
Ron.
