RE: No Fit file

This is not a bug in NM-TRAN. But I can see how it happens in MS-DOS. Both wordpad and notepad (unlike ms-dos edit and unix vi) will write a file whose last line does not terminate with cr/lf. Such a line is invisible to the Fortran I/O libraries that are part of g77 (in the MS-DOS environment) and FORTRAN 77 5.0 (in the Solaris environment). I tested this in both MS-DOS and Solaris with a little fortran program that branches to statement 10 when an end of file condition occurs. program read character*10 text read (5,55,end=10) text print *,text 55 format (A10) stop 10 print *,'nothing read' end I created a file named infile containing only "1234567890" with no cr/lf using notepad. I copied it to Solaris using ftp. In both environments, when the program is run with infile as input, it produces the output "nothing read". E.g., in Solaris, % f77 read.for read.for: MAIN read: % a.out<infile nothing read I don't know how to overcome this problem. Changing the format from A10 to (say) A1 or * does not help. It seems to me it is a bug (or maybe a design feature?) in the Fortran I/O library.
