2-14 FORTRAN carriage-control
******************************
(Thanks to Clive Page for a clear discussion of this topic)
Many users find FORTRAN carriage-control a confusing issue.
The origin and history of carriage-control
------------------------------------------
Files intended to be displayed on a terminal screen or printed are
composed of lines, technically, these lines are records - sub-units
of data with well-defined boundaries, separated from each other.
On byte-oriented file systems (e.g. UNIX) lines are separated by
a control character, UNIX uses the line-feed character (ASCII 10),
Macs use carriage-control (ASCII 13), PCs use a carriage-control/
line-feed combination. Technically, each line is a delimited record.
On record-oriented file systems (e.g. VMS, IBM mainframes) each line
is a variable-size or fixed-size record. See the chapter on Files
and records for more details on the subject.
When a terminal/printer receives a sequence of records, it is supposed
to start a new line after processing each record, so each of them will
be displayed/printed on a separate line.
Theoretically an output device may act in different ways upon reaching
the end of a line (in formatted I/O), for example:
1) Do nothing special and continue printing (No carriage-control)
this is not very useful
2) Start a new line (Carriage-return carriage-control),
this is the usual behaviour
3) Perform a user-selected action, one of the following:
a) Start a new line
b) Skip one line and start a new line (double space printing)
c) Start a new page
d) Over-write the previous line for special effects, e.g. create
the not-equal sign by superimposing the '=' and '/' signs,
this may be possible with a printers.
Option #3 is the most general, and gives maximal control over the output,
you may say it supplements the horizontal formatting capabilities of
formatted I/O with "vertical formatting".
Note that carriage-control is supposed to be implemented by means
external to Fortran, i.e. the I/O sub-system itself (see below on VMS),
as it is supposed to apply also in non-FORTRAN contexts, e.g. viewing
a file written by a FORTRAN program. The FORTRAN compiler can only
affect I/O performed by a running FORTRAN program, i.e. interactive I/O.
The problem with #3 is that it requires support from the I/O subsystem
that some operating systems (e.g. UNIX, DOS) can't provide. Typically
record-oriented filesystems can support #3, and byte-oriented ones can't.
We will call option #3 Fortran Carriage-Control (FCC), as it is now
used only in the context of Fortran, you might say that being included
into the Fortran standards artificially prolonged its life.
FORTRAN was designed on systems that implemented FCC (IBM mainframes).
As systems with byte-oriented filesystems (e.g. UNIX) became more and
more common, it was impractical to require vendors to implement FCC
for all the devices, and the FORTRAN 77 standard evaded the issue by
requiring an implementation (by the ASA method) only for "printers",
but intentionally left the specification vague.
The ASA (American Standards Association) method
-----------------------------------------------
In this old carriage-control method (approved by ASA) the first
character in every line is not considered a part of the line,
but is used to control printing and screen display. Using ASA
you "waste" one character (the first) in each record, you can't
use it for data, it is a "vertical formatting command".
List directed output sends an extra space character prepended
to the data to avoid truncation of the first data character.
Note that when you display a file and get to the end of
a line, two independent actions must take place:
Action Name CODE ASCII Action
--------------- ---- ----- ------------------------------------------
Carriage return CR 13 Go to the beginning of the current line
Line feed LF 10 Go down to the next line, at same column
A table of ASA codes:
Control character Effect Possible implementation
----------------- ---------------- -----------------------
Space Normal behaviour printing/CR/LF
0 Double spacing LF/printing/CR/LF
+ Overwrite mode CR/printing/CR/LF
1 Next page m*LF/CR/LF/n*LF/printing/CR/LF
Remarks:
1) m,n are integers dependant on the number of lines in the "page",
and subject to bounds that are implementation defined.
2) On program startup an extra CR is sent
3) You can check the behaviour of your system with a terminal that
have a "display controls mode" (e.g. VTs), in this mode the
control characters are displayed instead of being interpreted.
In summary, when the ASA I/O scheme is in effect, the first character
in the line will be extracted and used to control the output, and will
not be displayed. For example, if the first character happened to be
a '+' the line will be written on top of the previous line.
Using and working around Fortran carriage-control
-------------------------------------------------
Fortran carriage-control (FCC) is a "vertical extension" of the
ordinary formats, few programmers use it today, probably because
UNIX systems provide incomplete support, and the feature turned
into a "bug".
If your system supports FCC, and you want to use it, and don't
mind being old-fashioned, you may do:
WRITE(UNIT=*, FMT='(A/)') '1 This is a page header'
or maybe:
CHARACTER FF*1
PARAMETER (FF = '1')
......................
WRITE(UNIT=*, FMT='(A1,A/)') FF, ' This is a page header'
You should begin "output formats" that require no special processing
with a '1X', so a space character will be written at the beginning
of each line, and the "normal" behavior will be produced.
"Input formats" reading files written with such format, should also
have an '1X', so on reading the extra space will be ignored.
By the way, list-directed I/O gives reasonable results on systems
that supports FCC by emulating Fortran carriage-control (adding an
extra blank at the beginning of each record).
What about programs that do use Fortran Carriage Control, but the
operating system doesn't support it? There is usually a "filter"
utility to handle this, for example:
UNIX-prompt> a.out | asa
In System V derived UNIX systems the name "asa" is used, BSD derived
systems use the name "fpr".
Operating | Interactive | Viewing | Printing | Converter |
System | session | files | files | utility |
| support | support | support | |
------------|-------------|------------|------------|-------------|
VMS | Yes | Yes | Yes | Not needed |
------------|-------------|------------|------------|-------------|
SunOS | | No | No | fpr |
Solaris | | | | |
------------|-------------|------------|------------|-------------|
IRIX | | | | asa |
------------|-------------|------------|------------|-------------|
AIX | | | | asa |
------------|-------------|------------|------------|-------------|
Another view of carriage-control
--------------------------------
The Fortran Standards (F77 and regrettably F90) both specify that
the first character has to be chopped off for any formatted record
sent to a 'printer' but don't define what a printer is (see the
table in the chapter: 'formatted/List-directed/unformatted I/O').
Unix and DOS systems don't have the VMS luxury of defining a special
file type for Fortran output (no file type concept at all, really),
so they have problems with this. Some define the user's terminal
screen as a printer, others do not. Indeed some systems like those
made by SUN seem to define all devices as being not a printer,
and never remove the first character. But they usually provide
a utility which chops the first char off each line and converts
it to a form-feed, or whatever. This utility may be called 'asa'
(posix standard spelling) or 'fpr' on BSD flavored/influenced systems.
The VMS implementation of ASA
-----------------------------
On a VMS machine, you usually meet the FORTRAN carriage-control, when
you 'type' a file written by a FORTRAN program on the screen or print
it, and in some mysterious way the first character in every line is
missing, and/or some lines are completely missing or mixed up.
The VMS operating system knows that the file was written by a FORTRAN
program, and so has to be treated in a different way, if it has the
FORTRAN CARRIAGE-CONTROL ATTRIBUTE that is kept with other information
on the file.
On VMS the default carriage-control for files written by a FORTRAN
program is FORTRAN carriage-control, you can make FORTRAN programs write
'normal' files if you OPEN them with:
CARRIAGECONTROL = 'LIST'

A much more important factor in the social movement than those already mentioned was the ever-increasing influence of women. This probably stood at the lowest point to which it has ever fallen, during the classic age of Greek life and thought. In the history of Thucydides, so far as it forms a connected series of events, four times only during a period of nearly seventy years does a woman cross the scene. In each instance her apparition only lasts for a moment. In three of the four instances she is a queen or a princess, and belongs either to the half-barbarous kingdoms of northern Hellas or to wholly barbarous Thrace. In the one remaining instance208— that of the woman who helps some of the trapped Thebans to make their escape from Plataea—while her deed of mercy will live for ever, her name is for ever lost.319 But no sooner did philosophy abandon physics for ethics and religion than the importance of those subjects to women was perceived, first by Socrates, and after him by Xenophon and Plato. Women are said to have attended Plato’s lectures disguised as men. Women formed part of the circle which gathered round Epicurus in his suburban retreat. Others aspired not only to learn but to teach. Arêtê, the daughter of Aristippus, handed on the Cyrenaic doctrine to her son, the younger Aristippus. Hipparchia, the wife of Crates the Cynic, earned a place among the representatives of his school. But all these were exceptions; some of them belonged to the class of Hetaerae; and philosophy, although it might address itself to them, remained unaffected by their influence. The case was widely different in Rome, where women were far more highly honoured than in Greece;320 and even if the prominent part assigned to them in the legendary history of the city be a proof, among others, of its untrustworthiness, still that such stories should be thought worth inventing and preserving is an indirect proof of the extent to which feminine influence prevailed. With the loss of political liberty, their importance, as always happens at such a conjuncture, was considerably increased. Under a personal government there is far more scope for intrigue than where law is king; and as intriguers women are at least the209 equals of men. Moreover, they profited fully by the levelling tendencies of the age. One great service of the imperial jurisconsults was to remove some of the disabilities under which women formerly suffered. According to the old law, they were placed under male guardianship through their whole life, but this restraint was first reduced to a legal fiction by compelling the guardian to do what they wished, and at last it was entirely abolished. Their powers both of inheritance and bequest were extended; they frequently possessed immense wealth; and their wealth was sometimes expended for purposes of public munificence. Their social freedom seems to have been unlimited, and they formed combinations among themselves which probably served to increase their general influence.321 The old religions of Greece and Italy were essentially oracular. While inculcating the existence of supernatural beings, and prescribing the modes according to which such beings were to be worshipped, they paid most attention to the interpretation of the signs by which either future events in general, or the consequences of particular actions, were supposed to be divinely revealed. Of these intimations, some were given to the whole world, so that he who ran might read, others were reserved for certain favoured localities, and only communicated through the appointed ministers of the god. The Delphic oracle in particular enjoyed an enormous reputation both among Greeks and barbarians for guidance afforded under the latter conditions; and during a considerable period it may even be said to have directed the course of Hellenic civilisation. It was also under this form that supernatural religion suffered most injury from the great intellectual movement which followed the Persian wars. Men who had learned to study the constant sequences of Nature for themselves, and to shape their conduct according to fixed principles of prudence or of justice, either thought it irreverent to trouble the god about questions on which they were competent to form an opinion for themselves, or did not choose to place a well-considered scheme at the mercy of his possibly interested responses. That such a revolution occurred about the middle of the fifth century B.C., seems proved by the great change of tone in reference to this subject which one perceives on passing from Aeschylus to Sophocles. That anyone should question the veracity of an oracle is a supposition which never crosses the mind of the elder dramatist. A knowledge of augury counts among the greatest benefits222 conferred by Prometheus on mankind, and the Titan brings Zeus himself to terms by his acquaintance with the secrets of destiny. Sophocles, on the other hand, evidently has to deal with a sceptical generation, despising prophecies and needing to be warned of the fearful consequences brought about by neglecting their injunctions. The stranger had a pleasant, round face, with eyes that twinkled in spite of the creases around them that showed worry. No wonder he was worried, Sandy thought: having deserted the craft they had foiled in its attempt to get the gems, the man had returned from some short foray to discover his craft replaced by another. “Thanks,” Dick retorted, without smiling. When they reached him, in the dying glow of the flashlight Dick trained on a body lying in a heap, they identified the man who had been warned by his gypsy fortune teller to “look out for a hidden enemy.” He was lying at full length in the mould and leaves. "But that is sport," she answered carelessly. On the retirement of Townshend, Walpole reigned supreme and without a rival in the Cabinet. Henry Pelham was made Secretary at War; Compton Earl of Wilmington Privy Seal. He left foreign affairs chiefly to Stanhope, now Lord Harrington, and to the Duke of Newcastle, impressing on them by all means to avoid quarrels with foreign Powers, and maintain the blessings of peace. With all the faults of Walpole, this was the praise of his political system, which system, on the meeting of Parliament in the spring of 1731, was violently attacked by Wyndham and Pulteney, on the plea that we were making ruinous treaties, and sacrificing British interests, in order to benefit Hanover, the eternal millstone round the neck of England. Pulteney and Bolingbroke carried the same attack into the pages of The Craftsman, but they failed to move Walpole, or to shake his power. The English Government, instead of treating Wilkes with a dignified indifference, was weak enough to show how deeply it was touched by him, dismissed him from his commission of Colonel of the Buckinghamshire Militia, and treated Lord Temple as an abettor of his, by depriving him of the Lord-Lieutenancy of the same county, and striking his name from the list of Privy Councillors, giving the Lord-Lieutenancy to Dashwood, now Lord Le Despencer. "I tell you what I'll do," said the Deacon, after a little consideration. "I feel as if both Si and you kin stand a little more'n you had yesterday. I'll cook two to-day. We'll send a big cupful over to Capt. McGillicuddy. That'll leave us two for to-morrer. After that we'll have to trust to Providence." "Indeed you won't," said the Surgeon decisively. "You'll go straight home, and stay there until you are well. You won't be fit for duty for at least a month yet, if then. If you went out into camp now you would have a relapse, and be dead inside of a week. The country between here and Chattanooga is dotted with the graves of men who have been sent back to the front too soon." "Adone do wud that—though you sound more as if you wur in a black temper wud me than as if you pitied me." "Wot about this gal he's married?" "Don't come any further." "Davy, it 'ud be cruel of us to go and leave him." "Insolent priest!" interrupted De Boteler, "do you dare to justify what you have done? Now, by my faith, if you had with proper humility acknowledged your fault and sued for pardon—pardon you should have had. But now, you leave this castle instantly. I will teach you that De Boteler will yet be master of his own house, and his own vassals. And here I swear (and the baron of Sudley uttered an imprecation) that, for your meddling knavery, no priest or monk shall ever again abide here. If the varlets want to shrieve, they can go to the Abbey; and if they want to hear mass, a priest can come from Winchcombe. But never shall another of your meddling fraternity abide at Sudley while Roland de Boteler is its lord." "My lord," said Edith, in her defence, "this woman has sworn falsely. The medicine I gave was a sovereign remedy, if given as I ordered. Ten drops would have saved the child's life; but the contents of the phial destroyed it. The words I uttered were prayers for the life of the child. My children, and all who know me, can bear witness that I have a custom of asking His blessing upon all I take in hand. I raised my eyes towards heaven, and muttered words; but, my lord, they were words of prayer—and I looked up as I prayed, to the footstool of the Lord. But it is in vain to contend: the malice of the wicked will triumph, and Edith Holgrave, who even in thought never harmed one of God's creatures, must be sacrificed to cover the guilt, or hide the thoughtlessness of another." "Aye, Sir Treasurer, thou hast reason to sink thy head! Thy odious poll-tax has mingled vengeance—nay, blood—with the cry of the bond." HoME古一级毛片免费观看
