Not sure what you expect to happen when you display a control characters on screen? The windows console may not react the same as a typical ANSI terminal did in the "old days". However, both control M and control L give me the expected behavior.

Try the following program

program testcc
implicit none
integer::i
do i=1,18
write(*,"(i2,2x,a)")i,char(i)
end do
end program testcc

Hi Baf1, thanks for the suggestion but it did not work. I tried 7 different ascii codes, the only one that worked was LF ... not too exciting because a / in the format stmnt will do the same thing.

Hummm ... ok ... I tried it a couple of times but I could not get it too work ... I will try again. The following did not work ???

integer cr,lf
data cr/o"015" lf/"012"/

....

write (*,5) cr,cr,lf,lf
5 format (4a1)

Thanks, Imre

Simple ASCII control characters should still work on Windows terminals, although BELL probably won't (most systems block that by default).

Can the ascii control characters like FF LF CR BELL etc work on a windows system or will it only work on the old tty monitors ?

Is there anything similar for Windows systems ?
