<p>This is the second time in the longform challenge I have found myself having to implement fprintf() [the other time was Forth]. Both languages do predate C, but I was hoping both would have, at some point in the last 55 years, realized "oh… people want to be able to input line-delimited text files" and added such a feature.</p>
<p>Now that I have successfully figured out how to read an argument from the command line without knowing its length ahead of time, I am stuck on figuring out how to read a line of text from a file without knowing its length ahead of time. Apparently not an expected FORTRAN use case. I think the trick I was using before will not work, or at least, I *think*</p><p>read(10,"(a)",size=line_length,advance='NO') line_in</p><p>should read a line without advancing the filehandle and save the size. But it saves 0.</p>

<p>Oh my hell lol, I sincerely believe I have found a bug (standard nonconformance) in GNU FORTRAN 14.2.0 and I have a repro case</p><p><a href="https://github.com/mcclure/aoc2024/blob/b31be91adb5a0721f97e2ba8f145da4f36129753/04-01-wordsearch/src/puzzle.f90" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/mcclure/aoc2024/blo</span><span class="invisible">b/b31be91adb5a0721f97e2ba8f145da4f36129753/04-01-wordsearch/src/puzzle.f90</span></a></p><p>Am I going to have to figure out how to report a bug on GNU. Geez. Is this going to be like the bureaucracy planet scene in Jupiter Rising</p>
<p>i miss the ever given, i hope it is living its best life</p>
