Defining formatting styles for Fortran

I really like the idea.
Recently, I tried to follow the style guide @everythingfunctional posted two years ago (Free Style Guide).
Additionally, I try to add comments in a way FORD understands them.

Maybe it would be possible to collect all the things we need to cover (spacing, naming, etc.) first. And in the next step we could “vote” on default values for them, like indentation width etc.
Tools could then take these values and users of these tools shouldn’t need to change much, as the default values represent the average user.
