        Both the Control Data FTN 4 (1966 plus extensions, such as
expressions in iolists) and FTN 5 (1977) compilers accept the construct.

        The WRITE statement corresponds to FORTRAN 77.  The FORMAT should
be changed to (i3) or (1x,i2), since FORTRAN 77 does not permit a "-" as a
carriage control.

Don't blame me for the crowded freeways - I don't drive.
