Download MinGW64 binaries instead as they're better and actually updated. By far the easiest to install would probably be STL's Nuwen distro, located here.
As for invoking the command-line, I'll imagine it's similar to how it is for other languages, e.g.
Code:g++ -O2 fileName -o fileName.exe
is how you'd do it in C++.
You can find more info on the docs.
I have installed MinGW (successfully, according to the instructions).
I apologize in advance, but I do not know what I am looking at nor do I know what I'm supposed to be looking for.
What do you mean by WinGW64 binaries?
Is what I already have installed enough to compile fortran code? I'm trying to find something where "ALL I NEED IT TO DO ARE THE MOST ELEMENTARY OPERATIONS THAT I HAVE BEEN DOING AT WORK FOR 58 YEARS."
