In the discussion on lexxing FORTRAN, someone asked whether blanks could be made significant in Fortran 8x. They have not been made significant in the old source form, because of the need to support old programs. They have been made significant in the new source form. As someone else suggested, the underscore character has been made legal in Fortran names (in both source forms). Kurt W. Hirchert hirchert@ncsa.uiuc.edu National Center for Supercomputing Applications
