Thank you JJ :smile:

Today we had a meeting. Here are the notes: ## Current Progress By JJ - [#93]: Support for Fortran - Per-compiler LD flags and switches - Has tested the Fortran...

I think we would also want to create documentation about how to generate a deb file from the debian directory and a desired flit tag.

Right now, the Makefile generates variables based on the compiler `type` variable from `flit-config.toml`. We should use the `name` field instead since that is already required to be unique.

There are many options for doing color output from python Many of these options are from this stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/287871/how-to-print-colored-text-in-terminal-in-python#287944 I propose a mixed approach where any one of these, if...

One thing to note that I do not intend to check is that each version of `nvcc` only supports specific versions of other compilers and will refuse to work with...

One possible nicity that we could do is to dynamically call `nvcc` with the compiler under question with simple flags and parse the error output for something saying that the...

Also, the `-xHost` flag seems like it should be set for intel compilations, where it takes advantage of the hardware where it is compiled. Should we do this for all...

May be important for some architectures such as the Xeon Phi: `-fimf-domain-exclusion=15` which results in faster executions of math library routines; excludes extremes, nans, infinities and denormals

Intel recommends that for a good tradeoff between performance and reproducibility, do the following: `-fp-model precise -fp-model source`
