I used to write a fair amount of Fortran, but haven't recently.  While
it does have a lot of functionality (most of which I never had occasion
to use).  But it at least didn't have support for my pet peeve, the
separator character (whatever one is used) every three digits.  This
really improves readability for numbers with lots of digits.  Does it
now support this?
