Now I am curious why that would be, I was under the impression that (in
absence of any flags) the 72 char was the default in g77?
Did you have a Makefile or other build system that had some additional
flags when using g77?
(I am in the positon of helping Fortran users get their programs working
without actually being a Fortran user so little bits of info like this
are useful!)
man g77 says:
-ffixed-line-length-n
Set column after which characters are ignored in typical
fixed-form lines in the source file, and through which spaces are
assumed (as if padded to that length) after the ends of short
fixed-form lines.
Popular values for n include 72 (the standard and the
default), 80 (card image), and 132 ...
