WIN ME I/O

One more question about i/o. My programs have large binary i/o which on unix and mainframes is buffered. Er, maybe i am confused about terminology here. I assume most machines by default have buffered i/o to all output except 0,5, and 6, which are the screen utilities. Is this true? And, now the compaq fortran compilers make all i/o unbuffered. This would make sense since the i/o now goes to windows. What is the simpliest way to adhere to previous standard?

Why do you say "the Compaq Fortran compilers make all I/O unbuffered"? That is not the case. Buffering is the default for unformatted I/O.

Thanks.

That is what I expect. Except I got confused reading about the "buffered" option in the manual. Also, when i run inquire on file. I get buffered "no" when i expected buffered "yes."

Now, I won't worry about it.
