$ cat hello.F
      program hello
      implicit none
      write(*,) 'Hello!'
      end



$ g77 hello.F

hello.F:3:                                           (<==)
         write(*,) 'Hello!'
                 ^
Expression at (^) has incorrect data type or rank for its context




$ gfortran hello.F
 In file hello.F:3

      write(*,) 'Hello!'                                                
             1
Error: Syntax error in WRITE statement at (1)

-------------------------------------


The only difference between G77 anf GFortran seems the line (<==).

Why is it so hard for GFortran add that line?


Cheers,

  Angelo.
