Section 10,10: Carriage_Control
When the first character of a formatted record is transferred to an
output file or printer, it can be interpreted as a carriage control
character (and not printed) if the file is opened with
CARRIAGECONTROL='FORTRAN' in effect.
On U*X systems, this interpretation can also occur if the file is
processed by the fortpr format utility.
The I/O system recognizes the characters listed below as carriage
control characters and does not print them.
Character Meaning
--------- -----------------------------------------
'+' Overprinting: Outputs the record (at the
beginning of the current line) and a
carriage return.
' ' One line feed: Outputs the record (at the
beginning of the following line) and a
carriage return.
'0' Two line feeds: Outputs the record (after
skipping a line) and a carriage return.
'1' Next page: Outputs the record (at the
beginning of a new page) and a carriage
return.
'$' Prompting: Outputs the record (at the
beginning of a new page), but no carriage
return.
ASCII NULL Overprinting with no advance: Outputs
the record (at the beginning of the current
line), but no carriage return. (ASCII NULL
is specified as CHAR(0).)
Any character other than those listed above is interpreted as a
space and is deleted from the print line. If you accidentally omit
a carriage control character, the first character of the record is
not printed.
