Hi,

        I want to read from a data file with a fortran program. The problem is t
hat
the file has only one line and the length of the line varies every time we run t
he
program (it could be over 1MB long). Were writting a program to write/read IBM
tapes. Does anyone know how to read one char at a time and ignore what the char
is?
thanks.
