Re: Sub procedure end specification

I'm with Alan on this one. I can *maybe*, under certain *very
limited*circumstances, see the benefit of putting the procedure name
in the end-P
line, but I can't *stand* people putting the procedure name in the PI line
of a subprocedure - it's not like the name isn't ONE LINE ABOVE anyway.

This stuff drives me crazy. Why repeat the name of the procedure name three
times? I don't know of any other language that allows you to do that. What
purpose does it serve except cluttering up the code? I have no idea why IBM
even allow it.
