gfortran accepts the following syntax for the assignment of character objects:
CHARACTER(14) :: prop(4) = (/'name', 'data_file_name', 'Ho_units',
'mpolar_units'/)
Although this is convenient, is not according to the Fortran standard that
requires that all of the elements of a constructor be the same kind, type and
for characters, length.
According to this the correct syntax is:
CHARACTER(14) :: prop(4) = (/'name ', 'data_file_name', &
'Ho_units ', 'mpolar_units '/)
