I have been using the Fortran inbuilt function TINY (running
gfortran) but now the compiler baulks:

5 | print '(" Tiny(1) =", es12.2)', TINY(1.0_dbl)
| 1
Error: Syntax error in PRINT statement at (1)

(I am defining dbl in a module).

What is going on?

Do you have an unprintable control character somewhere
in that line of code?

Kind of hard to say anything more without seeing a
minimum complete code.

What version of gfortran and what OS and hardware?

The problem was in that line, so I considered the
rest of the (longish) program irrelevant. But OK.

You might be right about an unprintable, because
when I made up a small mini-example, TINY works.
Meanwhile I had changed it in the offending function
to 1.0E-10_dbl, which fixed it, but I don't like it.
I will now try going back to using TINY.
