This is the traditional approach -- such arguments are called
workspace arrays. An alternative is MODULE variables, with the PRIVATE
attribute, declared ALLOCATABLE, placed in the module containing the
subroutine that uses them.

right.. but does that alleviate my problem of having to allocate it
every time the module gets called..??

Why not use an initialisation function that allocates all your module variables. Then, all your subsequent application function calls simple reference (what I call) the "shared" data.
