Any plans to support UTF16 or UTF8 in gfortran ?
 

gfortran has supported UTF-8 for long time now.  Here's
an example from the manual.


 program character_kind
    use iso_fortran_env
    implicit none
    integer, parameter :: ascii = selected_char_kind ("ascii")
    integer, parameter :: ucs4  = selected_char_kind ('ISO_10646')

    character(kind=ascii, len=26) :: alphabet
    character(kind=ucs4,  len=30) :: hello_world

    alphabet = ascii_"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
    hello_world = ucs4_'Hello World and Ni Hao -- ' &
  // char (int (z'4F60'), ucs4)     &
  // char (int (z'597D'), ucs4)

    write (*,*) alphabet

    open (output_unit, encoding='UTF-8')
    write (*,*) trim (hello_world)
  end program character_kind
