Can you give an example? I guess I don't understand what you mean by
"use a typed literal without needing to define a parameter".
I've always viewed KIND attributes with distaste -- do we want something
other than double precision real variables? What is wrong with "1.0d0"
if that is what is desired? It can be dangerous to assume that
compilers will do the correct things with any non-standard KIND
attribute.

Is there any reason *to* make such a conversion? I've thought that
unless the code were improved, just wrapping common blocks in modules
didn't really gain us much.

I thought Ross had already done this(?)
