FMT= can specify either a line number of a FORMAT statement, an actual format string or a *.
Fortran 90 has a rich formatting syntax, only the highlights are given here.
An example,
WRITE(17,FMT=&
'(2X,2I4,1X,''name '',A7)')i,j,str
READ(14,*) x,y
WRITE(*,FMT=10) a,b
10 FORMAT('vals',2(F15.6,2X))
The data is formatted using edit descriptors.
The following is written,
11-195 name Philip vals -1.051330 333356.000033
