Node: Q Edit Descriptor, Next: Old-style PARAMETER Statements, Previous: Explicit Assembler Code, Up: Missing Features
The Q edit descriptor in FORMATs isn't supported.
(This is meant to get the number of characters remaining in an input record.)
Supporting this requires a significant redesign or replacement
of libg2c.
A workaround might be using internal I/O or the stream-based intrinsics. See FGetC Intrinsic (subroutine).
