Well, you re-up this thread, so...

I re-ask my question.

The C line above prints each variable separared by a blank
char.

My question is twofold:

1) How can I do this in fortran ?
The "%g" means that it prints "12" if x=12 and not "12.0000"

2) How can I avoid the broken line beyond (72 ?) characters printed ?
I would like to have all the characters on the same line (say I want to
print 10x10 matrix).

TIA.

Cheers,

So will Fortran list format (*) or an explicit format should you
so desire.

C is, IMHO, severely broken in this respect -- you can't tell by
inspection of the output whether x is an integer or a real. OK, it's
possible to get the same effect in Fortran, but you have to _try_.

Specify a different record length in your OPEN statement. (You
will need to use an explicit OPEN if you are writing to standard output,
to over-ride the default).
