Yes, I understand, but I assume you can fix this in a future version?

As for detecting the version of Fortran, you can look at this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intel\Compilers\Fortran\110.066]
"Revision"=dword:00000042
"Minor Version"=dword:00000000
"Major Version"=dword:0000000b

The only problem is the "110.066" part in the address, but as this is
the only "folder" under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intel\Compilers\Fortran
i guess it is doable to detect the compiler version (b is of course hex
for 11).
