Syntax

Arguments
None
Default
| nof77rtl | The compiler uses the runtime behavior of Intel® Fortran. | 
Description
This option tells the compiler to use the runtime behavior of FORTRAN 77.
Specifying this option controls the following runtime behavior:
- When the unit is not connected to a file, some INQUIRE specifiers will return different values: - NUMBER= returns 0 
- ACCESS= returns 'UNKNOWN' 
- BLANK= returns 'UNKNOWN' 
- FORM= returns 'UNKNOWN' 
 
- There is no support for the PAD= qualifier. FORTRAN 77 does not pad formatted input. 
- NAMELIST and list-directed input of character strings must be delimited by apostrophes or quotes. 
- When processing NAMELIST input: - Column 1 of each record is skipped. 
- The '$' or '&' that appears prior to the group-name must appear in column 2 of the input record.
