Has anybody managed to do associated reads on files generated by f77 under
Unix ?

I have RTFM, which states that you can't do associated reads on files
generated from FORTRAN 77 under Unix. Apparently, f77 sticks a longword
containing the number of bytes before and after each logical record. IDL's
readu accounts for the extra bytes, but assoc does not. It seems to me that I
should still be able to do the associated reads, if I just added a dummy
longword on either side of my datastructure, but it does not seem to work.
