most of the time that's true.  but there are some differences in how the
programs behave.  i lost some large tufts of hair once, when a 36
program wrote to a file twice in a cycle, without a 2nd read.  you could
do that in for a 36 program.   changing it to a rpg program caused some
major problems!
