Both are do-able on unix or VMS.

Infile was a fortran direct access file:

VMS:
openr,ilu,/get, file, lrecl ; lrecl is length of record in bytes

Unix:
openr, ilu, /get, file ; You need to know the length of record
; you were using in FTN.

Infile was fortran sequential file:

VMS:
openr, ilu, /get, file, /segmented

Unix:
openr, ilu, /get, file, /f77_unformatted

In all cases you then just use readu in the usual way.
