CHARACTERs in Fortran are just pointers of type char*, just like in C, and just like any other fortran array. There is no terminating null and the fortran functions get the length either from some argument or because they assume a given size (for instance in Lapack it is a one-character string what the function expects)
Are you sure about? I think the lengths are passed as implicit arguments at the end of the argumwnt list.
