Deviation from MS Fortan behavior


g77 does not compile this program:

> g77 -c a.for
>a.for: In program `wk2la':
>a.for:2: 
>   1000    FORMAT (1X,'ENTER THE NAME OF THE DATA (.ODF ASSUMED):'\)
>                                                                  ^
>Unrecognized character at (^) [info -f g77 M LEX]
>a.for:2: 
>   1000    FORMAT (1X,'ENTER THE NAME OF THE DATA (.ODF ASSUMED):'\)
>                                                                    ^
>Missing close-parenthese(s) in FORMAT statement at (^)
 
MS Fortran however accepts this program.

        READ (*,1001)FILE
1001    FORMAT (A8)

        END
