Makes sense. But, since this particular developer doesn't care much for
using subroutines, it's not as much a concern here. <sigh>

Dan,
While you are at it, how about the CAS* op-codes.
Those are even *more* obscure.

What are the chances we could get IBM / Barbara to get the compiler to
puke
on any of the CAB* opcodes? At a minimum, the compiler should post a
message requiring a reply to the question, "How many years before you
retire?" and, if the response is greater than 1, tell the user to drop
the
bloody CAB* opcodes and try again.

Perhaps less complex is to just update SEU one last time that flags any
CAB* opcode as a syntax error. Cuz you damn well know they're not
using
RDi!

Yes, there are other opcodes, including cousin GOTO (so flag that as a
syntax error as well), but CAB* opcodes are so obscure, I spend a
minute
or
two just trying to understand what is trying to be accomplished.

Is it 5:00 yet?
