Can't help you, but I'm glad to see there are others outthere who like PL/I.

Too bad the OS/400 PL/I is such a lousy subset: it couldhave been so much better as an ILE language, particularlyif they'd implemented more of it. In particular, there'sso much of the ILE C runtime that they could haveleveraged for things like interactive PUT and GETstatements.
