Within a procedure, a declaration such as integer :: i =3D 0 would trigger the warning. To silence it, the user would have to write integer, save :: i =3D 0 Implicit save is a bad feature of Fortran that often surprises and perplexes newcomers to the language. Gfortran must implement the standard, but it can nudge users toward better practices with a -Wimplicit-save option.=
