Hello,

I am using emacs on our Vax cluster under the VMS operating system. I had a
problem when I edited (using emacs) a fortran source file written by somebody
else : the compiler complains about "redundant continuation marks". This hap-
pens only in one big program that has many "long lines", i.e. uses the whole
width of 79 char per line. The original file has max record lenght of 80
bytes while in the file created by emacs it's 146 bytes. The problem occurs
even when an insignificant change is done to the original file (deletion of a
character in a comment).

When I created a small fortran source file with another editor (eve) and
then saved it with emacs after small changes, there was no problem. However,
in this case the max record lenght was only 46 bytes in both files.

I am using the 18.52.12 version of emacs. I would be very grateful for any
indication how to solve this problem.

Thank you in advance
