Speaking of which, to avoid confusion maybe we should rename the -f[no-]automatic option to something like -f[no-]save, since the Fortran standard description of an "automatic data object" doesn't really have anything to do with the option, and neither does the option have anything to do specifically with the DEC AUTOMATIC specifier? -- Janne Blomqvist
