Error: Syntax error in data declaration at (1)

The full program is here:

Can anyone help me with the gcc syntax?

The code declares a character array as
  CHARACTER KARK*23(4)
which is not permitted. You could replace it by
  CHARACTER*23 KARK(4)

(The latter syntax is according to the Fortran standard (Fortran 77, 90, 95, 2003, 2008) and should be accepted by all Fortran compilers.)

That modification seems to be sufficient to make the code compile with gfortran.

The code uses also other vendor extensions (which are supported by gfortran). To make the code conforming with the ISO/IEC Fortran standard, some more modificiations are required; e.g. the initialization with /.../ is only permitted with DATA and not in with the variable declaration, i.e.
      CHARACTER*1 CLASS(3) /'A','B','C'/
should be
      CHARACTER*1 CLASS(3)
      DATA CLASS/'A','B','C'/
or (since Fortran 90 and later)
      CHARACTER*1 :: CLASS(3) = (/ 'A', 'B', 'C' /)

But if you just want to compile it with gfortran, you don't need those as gfortran supports this initialization as vendor extension.
