sscanf's like constructs are also a possibility. ARRAY OF
CONST is strong enough to implement it.
The Fortran output is fixed format. In
FORMAT(I3,I7,2X,A25,1X,F6.2,1X,F7.2,3(1X,I4),1X,F4.1,1X,I1) the first 2
integers can be linked together. 123 followed by 1234567 result in
1231234567. sscanf can't deal with this AFAIK.
Couldn't a function e.g. FortranCard() take a dynamic array of format
specifiers and return a dynamic array of variants? Then
values := FortranCard(stream, ['I3', 'I7', '2X', 'A25', ...
is simply a case of splitting the input into fixed-length fields, the
letters being "noise".
