J3/00-248r1 Date: 10 July 2000 To: J3 From: Dan Nagle Subject: Note removal of 9.5.5 in Ch 1 As promised at 153, this paper adds a note to Chapter One to mark the passing of printing (a/k/a "carriage control"). Edits: 3:19+ Add paragraph: Earlier Fortran standards had the concept of printing, meaning that column one of formatted output had special meaning for a processor dependent (possibly empty) set of logical units. This concept appears to violate 1.4 (3) above, and could be neither detected nor specified by a standard-specified means. The interpretation of the first column is no longer specified by this standard.
