Thank you for all this feedback.

I saw that in the gitlab, we are already at version 0.8.  
However, while giving different results, this rework does not fix your problem.  
I will try to work in this on my spare time this week, How much can you afford to wait?  
Many thanks again for your patience

In the default configuration file, there is that rule:

```nohighlight
  not-recommended-use-exit:
    message: exit is an extension and should be avoided
    regexp: \bexit\b

```

but `exit` is not an extension, it is in the Fortran standard: section _11.1.12 EXIT statement_ in the 2018 standard.|
