... is unique to CVF/IVF). My real preference is to have nothing to do with them, and thus to not call them anything, but I can't always get by with that. Some people also call them Livermore pointers, which has substantial justification, or integer pointers. Then there are the people who just call them pointers without qualification, most often people who don't know about standard Fortran 90 pointers. That terminology I always try to ...

...> We should probably not call them "Cray" pointers unless they behave exactly as one (probably the most recent) implementation produced by Cray. Which Cray pointers did you have in mind? The original is Livermore pointers, which worked on Cyber 7600s (or was it 6600s? I can't recall).  These were word pointers (60-bits). The Cray pointer was at first a (64-bit) word pointer on the Cray-1 series (later,...

The truly wonderful thing about extensions is that they are a little different on each compiler that supports them (where supported at all).
