Library /sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb  —  FORTRAN  Statements  Input Output, Formatted
  Formatted I/O statements contain explicit format specifiers that
  are used to control the translation of data from internal (binary)
  form within a program to external (readable character) form in the
  records, or vice versa.

  Formatted I/O statements must have a format (FMT=) specified in the
  control list (clist).  Additional "clist" elements are required
  depending on the type of access.

  Formatted sequential READ:

    READ (UNIT=u,FMT=f[,ADVANCE=exp][,SIZE=var][,IOSTAT=ios]
          [,ERR=err][,END=end]) [iolist]
    READ f [,iolist]

  Formatted direct access READ:

    READ (UNIT=u,REC=rec,FMT=f[,IOSTAT=ios][,ERR=err]) [iolist]

  Formatted indexed READ:

    READ (UNIT=u,FMT=f,KEY=k[,KEYID=n][,IOSTAT=ios]
         [,ERR=err]) [iolist]

  Formatted internal READ:

    READ (UNIT=u,FMT=f[,IOSTAT=ios][,ERR=err][,END=end]) [iolist]

  Formatted sequential WRITE:

    WRITE (UNIT=u,FMT=f[,ADVANCE=exp][,IOSTAT=ios]
          [,ERR=err]) [iolist]

  Formatted direct access WRITE:

    WRITE (UNIT=u,REC=rec,FMT=f[,IOSTAT=ios][,ERR=err]) [iolist]

  Formatted indexed WRITE:

    WRITE (UNIT=u,FMT=f[,IOSTAT=ios][,ERR=err]) [iolist]

  Formatted internal WRITE:

    WRITE (UNIT=u,FMT=f[,IOSTAT=ios][,ERR=err]) [iolist]
