Few thoughts....

-limit the number of service programs...group procedures by application
area.

-Auto generated documentaion
---Modern x-ref tool, ie. X-Analysis
---OS projects,(JavaDocs for RPG), ILEDOCS, RPGDOCS, ...

This leads to another point that has bothered me. How is the inventory
of Service Program functions documented? How does a programmer navigate
through the dozens of service programs and find the one that is exactly
right? Or, not finding one exactly right, does s/he write a new one,
modify an existing one, or copy and change an existing one? In early days
that would seem like not much of a task, but after 8 years and 15 different
programmers involved, it must become a bird's nest?

Or this to really confuse some;)

I prefer this but it can make debugging a little hard (even with your
example) since you won't ever see the value ibeamWeight() returns.
