you use a CHARACTER variable or array element

Note that in Fortran 77, an array element *IS* a character variable

Oops. I see that I miswrote that, with the result that my post reads
nonsensically. Let me be teh first to correct it. The above should read
"in Fortran 90", or perhaps better "as of Fortran 90".

(unless it is a constant, but that case happens to be disallowed here
anyway). Thus the above statement is both more concise and more accurate
if you omit the "or array element" part.

This wasn't the case in f77, where array elements were a completely
distinct category of things. But other parts of the post implicitly
assume f90 or later (or f77 with extensions) anyway.
