I asked my pal Barry Shein, who many of you know, if he had his PL/1 syntax
horror lying around, and he did. He said: "this was tested on the Iron
Spring Software PL/1 compiler running on openSuSe Linux (
http://www.iron-spring.com/)"
IBM still uses PL/1. Remember, the main definition of "legacy" is
"revenue-producing."
TRY:PROC OPTIONS(MAIN);
DCL (IF,THEN,ELSE) FIXED BINARY (31);
IF = 1;
THEN = 2;
ELSE = 3;
IF IF = THEN THEN THEN = IF ; ELSE ELSE = THEN;
END TRY;
