All that to say I think Fortran can only claim to be what we call "general purpose" for a very limited window of time in the very early stages of computing.
In the early 1970s, almost every minicomputer had a Fortran compiler. Lisp was much rarer. Pascal had only just been invented and C was only just being invented. If you wanted your software to be as widely portable as possible, your choices were Fortran or Cobol, and no wonder why many preferred the former. (Especially if we are talking about software in academic/research environments, where Fortran was far more common than Cobol.)
This has little to do with Fortran and Lisp's respective years of introduction (1957 vs 1958), but rather how far they'd managed to spread in their first 15 years (almost everywhere for Fortran versus only to a narrow subset of academic research institutions for Lisp.)
Colossal Cave Adventure (ADVENT) was written in Fortran.
Zork (aka Dungeon) was originally written in an obscure Lisp dialect invented at MIT, MDL; but Bob Supnik at DEC ported it into Fortran, and that version became widely distributed.
I used to work for a university, where the software which determined whether students had met all their degree requirements to graduate (such software is sometimes called a "degree audit tool"), was written in Fortran. Why? Well, it was a manual paper-based process, then one of the academics kindly volunteered to automate it for them. And he was one of the mathematics lecturers, and Fortran was his favourite language, so that's what he did it in. Some years later he retired, and without him the software became increasingly difficult to maintain – the university no doubt had some Fortran programmers in the physics/maths/engineering/etc departments, but the central administration's IT didn't. They ended up replacing it with some commercial off-the-shelf solution–no idea what that was written in, but almost certainly not Fortran.
