The relevant bit of code, with the FORMAT statement closed with a ')' and
an END statement added to make it a viable program, is:
WRITE (*,10)
10 FORMAT(///,25X,'*****************************',
. /,25X,'* *')
END
For me this compiles and runs without error using gfortran (gcc version
4.7.2). Maybe you have an old version of gfortran with bugs. Note that a
statement with continuation lines containing errors usually generates an
error message which specifies only the first line of the statement. What's
in the rest of the FORMAT statement?
