This is a CMake Environment Variable. Its initial value is taken from the calling process environment.

Preferred executable for compiling `Fortran` language files. Will only be used by CMake on the first configuration to determine `Fortran` compiler, after which the value for `Fortran` is stored in the cache as `CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER`. For any configuration run (including the first), the environment variable will be ignored if the `CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER` variable is defined.
