The 2048 character limit is an artifact of how we do parsing within the
IDE. We're considering increasing it, but to do so would either reduce
the limit on the # of lines in a file, or increase memory usage, so it's
not a "slam dunk" sort of change.

Wow. One expects that from oddball legacy FORTRAN compilers (hello!
Intel! Slap your Itanium back end onto CVF!), NOT the latest & greatest
7-th generation thingy from Microsoft. They're usually better at
compilers than that.

(Yes, I'm one of the few using FORTRAN (DEC VAX extensions on FORTRAN
90/95 stuff) in a Windows environment. What's it to y'all? ;-) )

buffering"

Whassat? Y'mean I can't just declare my strings static-length? Whooda
thunkit?

I can top it: The other day I got an error message: "Can't convert
<type> to <exactly the same type>" A reboot cleared it. Wierd...
