<DD>Set maximum statement length to <I>num </I> columns. (Beyond this
is ignored.) This setting is provided to allow checking of programs which
may violate the Fortran standard limit of 72 columns for the length of
a statement. According to the standard, all characters past column 72
are ignored. If this setting is used when the <B><A HREF="f77.html">-f77</A>=long-line </B> option is in
effect, a warning will be given for any lines in which characters past
column 72 are processed. Turn-on = max = 132. Default = 72. <blockquote></DD>
</DL>
<P>
This setting
does not suppress warnings about the presence of characters beyond column
72. To process code with meaningful program text beyond column 72, use
this setting and be sure the <B><A HREF="f77.html">-f77</A> </B> <B>long-line </B> option is off. To process code
with sequence numbers in columns 73 to 80, leave the the columns setting
at the default value and use the <B><A HREF="pretty.html">-pretty</A>=no-long-line </B> flag. <P>
