  72. <p>GNU Fortran does not support the <code>ENCODE</code> and <code>DECODE</code>
  73. statements. These statements are best replaced by <code>READ</code> and
  74. <code>WRITE</code> statements involving internal files (<code>CHARACTER</code>
  75. variables and arrays), which have been part of the Fortran standard since
  76. Fortran 77. For example, replace a code fragment like
