Hello Paul,

Long time, no hear!

10.8.1 List-directed input
Input forms acceptable to edit descriptors for a given type are 
acceptable for list-directed
formatting, except as noted below. The form of the input value shall be 
acceptable for the type of
the next effective item in the list. Blanks are never used as zeros, and 
embedded blanks are not
permitted in constants, except within character constants and complex 
constants as specified
below.
When the next effective item is of type integer, the value in the input 
record is interpreted as if an
Iw edit descriptor with a suitable value of w were used.
.....snip.....
When the next effective item is of type logical, the input form shall 
not include slashes, blanks, or
commas among the optional characters permitted for L editing.

So I would say that the ifort behaviour is unexpected, if not a bug.

Cheers

Paul
