TRUNCATE INPUT LINES
Syntax:
[DO NOT] TRUNCATE [ INPUT LINES ]
Function:
The command TRUNCATE INPUT LINES instructs fpt to delete characters beyond column 72 when reading code in fixed format. Undelimited comments beyond column 72 are deleted and are not reported. The command is most often used to remove undelimited trailing line numbers from code from Gould-SEL Concept series machines and old IBM systems.
The command DO NOT TRUNCATE INPUT LINES instructs fpt to report undelimited comments beyond column 72 by warnings. Comment lines, and comments delimited by exclamation marks, are simply transcribed to the output files. The command NO WARNINGS FOR UNDELIMITED TRAILING COMMENTS instructs fpt to insert missing trailing comment delimiters without warning.
The commands EXTENDED SOURCE and INPUT CODE LAYOUT: FORTRAN 77 EXTENDED SOURCE instruct fpt to treat the entire input line as Fortran code. There is no comment field, and all trailing comments must be delimited.
