Because FTN95 integer kinds have to be chosen from {1, 2, 3, 4, 7}.

See your FTN95 documentation, consider using the iso_fortran_env module, and consider using the /ALT_KINDS option.

Thanks.
Should 8 be also added? Based on Make file of Epoch code 5 other Fortran compilers swallow this no problem

Native integer kinds:
1 = INTEGER*1
2 = INTEGER*2
3 = INTEGER*4
4 = INTEGER*8

When using /ALT_KINDS
1 = INTEGER*1
2 = INTEGER*2
4 = INTEGER*4
8 = INTEGER*8

FTN95 can be configured to use /ALT_KINDS by default. See /CONFIG.

Yes, thanks, but why not to take alt_kinds KINDS as a default for FTN95 if all other compilers use it which typically means de-facto default ? I never used this confusing to me FTN95 KIND scheme besides KIND=7 lately with 64bit Clearwin only.

The KIND=7 still can be used as an extension if other compilers already have no collision with this.

Rightly or wrongly that was the choice at the beginning. After that a change would break existing code.

As I mentioned above, users can configure FTN95 to make /ALT_KINDS the default.
