Intro:
[I am generating self-answering e-mailed questionnaires
with automatic e-mailed replies and all I know about HTML
came in as examples with the mail, both junk and goodies].
So, I was casually seeing how Lahey's Home page was put
together by examining the HTML code, (lots of conditional
parsing there to accommodate different browsers!),
WHEN...(finally he gets to it...!) I saw a surprising line!
It was a statement that elf90 does NOT support:-
"BN, BZ, D, H, P, S, and X edit descriptors"
This set me thinking. Finally, I ask you out there;
How can you live without BN, BZ and X? And EXPECIALLY X?
The creation of dynamic format statements using character
string arrays (subject of MANY Forum messages) REQUIRES a
variable length empty space filler to be definable; the other
two options save a heap of programming to achieve the effect
they provide. (I cheerfully condemn D,H,P and S to the flames).
Is someone DELIBERATELY trying to make life difficult!
Troubled, (again),
Terence Wright
The answer is simple - as all ELF90 experts know.
You use T.
Instead of FORMAT( 8X, ...
FORMAT( T9, ...
It's much easier to line things up with T then if you have
to add up all of those: 3X,F10.2,4X,I3,G13.5, ...
Cheers
