Very picky but not a new thing - same as all the other compiler "slash" directives, like /copy, /title, /eject, /space, /copy, /include, and our favorite, /exec-sql

Anyone have a blast from the past looking at that list?

All the conditional directives also start in column 7.

Also, the /Free must start in column 7, not 6, not 8. Very picky.

Is posible to assign a content from variable to a variable name?

It's not what you asked for, but this is about as close as you can get
with RPG. Of course the variable name is not "variable", but you can
assign a previously defined name to a storage location:

D MyVar S 10 Inz('MyValue')
D Pointer S * Inz(*NULL)
D MyNewVar S 10 Based(Pointer)
/FREE
// Here variable MyNewVar exists, but is undefined.
// any attempt to use it will produce an error.
Pointer = %Addr(MyVar);
// Here MyNewVar contains the value 'MyValue', and can be used
// just like any other variable.
/END-FREE
