Erm, sorry - I guess I was too brief. I'm thinking of dumb x-terminals
getting an xdm session from a 'real' box. Thus, they have physical
access to only a keyboard and monitor on the xterm, and user-level
access to wherever they log in to.

The primary purpose of the Data statement is to give names to constants; 
instead of referring to pi as 3.141592653589793 at every appearance, the
variable Pi can be given that value with a Data statement and used instead
of the longer form of the constant.  This also simplifies modifying the
program, should the value of pi change. -Fortran manual for Xerox Computers
