Hi! I was trying to read some binary data written by a GFortran binary with binaries written with other compilers (LF, SGI), and I couldn't get anywhere, so I just started to poke around to see where it came from... I tried to have a look at the Fortran standard, but I didn't get anywhere, but my experience with several compilers is that they do use this REC-LENGTH thing, so (and g77 did also!), so I would say it would be a pity to have trouble reading old binary data from g77 with gfortran... It's actually a rather self-centered comment, but maybe I'm not the only one... Cheers! Philippe -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21621
