You can make commands for CL,

>I'll go one futher:  Why can't users write their own opcodes?  We saw the
concept back in RPG 2.5 where macros in effect were copied in at precomile
time...but, why can't I create a op code, put it in some set lib area and
have it as a valid one that the compiler will just understand and roll
with?  From what I've spoken with some of the folks on the MI400 list off
line, creating a compiler for this box isn't that much of a chore and
heck, why not just make the compiler available to those that want to
customize their own compiler...yeah, I know it tends to throw standards in
the crapper...maybe..:)
